17 Shaky Flake

Nice crack route with nothing really shaky on it. Crack in black wall 17m R of 'Humpy' through overhangs to final wide steep crack [BD4 useful] which is more reasonable than it looks.

16 R Grin and Bare It

Unfortunately the bushfires have left the start [which was always a bit thin, loose and poorly protected] dangerously friable. Which is a pity as it is otherwise a very nice climb up a good line. Cairned and marked line 6m R of 'Flasher'. Up wall to shallow corner. Up V crack then R of arete and up twin cracks. Finish over blocks.

19 Beast of Burden

Looks very good and bloody hard for the grade. Could be worth more stars [and a higher grade] if anyone ever repeats it and comments on the quality and difficulty. Up wall 3m R of 'Ponderosa' to diagonal crack. Up crack to ledge. Step R and up wall over loose blocks. Up crack in summit block.
