Ascents in Yulludunida having Beta

pleasant, pictureque with some unprotected exposed steps to keep you excited.

Epic day out, the pictures don't do it justice, the stegosaurus back description is extremely accurate for the middle section. The rock is incredibly formed and has perfect jugs absolutely everywhere you need them, none of the up/downclimbing is at all difficult due to this, although it is very exposed.

The last third of the traverse is absolutely awesome with some sick bouldery sections on amazing jugs. At one point we reached a boulder that Greg straddled to get over while Jack traversed over while Jack awkwardly squeezed under. I opted for the straddling beta as it looked too fun, even more fun was Greg and Jack panicking and yelling that the boulder was moving a lot, which I assumed was them taking the piss until they said it a couple more times that I probably had a pretty priceless expression as I carefully got off what I now know from old logs as the *rodeo boulder" apt name. Bush bash to the car.

Full value in snow and mist! Set off about 230pm, dark at 540pm, back before dark.

Nice to revisit this classic route on a day that wasn’t blowing snow horizontally. If you are feeling underwhelmed, the second half of the route has more climbing sections and good exposure, and is probably more grade 5ish.

Alt with Dave and Mel in 2 pitches. Lovely position and bonus walk off skyline traverse.

We took it easy in 5 hours return car to car. Spectacular scenery.

Proves that climbing isn't all about grades!!

First multipitch climb. A great adventure.

Great scenery good scrambling

Great fun with amazing views, last 3/4 is when the fun starts,

With Andrew and Laura. Got to second main peak then turned back because Andrew's ankle was no good. Still amazing.

With Laura, Graham, Clem and Damo. Still fantastic on the third visit. The wobbly boulder was a highlight.

With Laura. All the way around this time. Amazing place. Got to watch a pair of peregrines attacking a pair of wedge-tailed eagles.

fantastic! walking along the top of the world...then back down agaiin. Flashbacks for a long long time!!!

Three starred mega classic scrambling, incredible location, stunning vistas, some exciting moves at the grade with some high winds thrown in- sooooo gooood!

What a beautiful feature, could be one of the nicest traverses in Australia - spent the whole day and had it to myself exploring around and put up a new route around gr10 solo. Then went back along the ridge and had a good summit nap

Was going to solo Bojangles but it looked to exposed, opted for this pleasant juggy buttress that got quite exposed higher up

This time in reverse, started at the other end and made my way back - seems to be the more logical traverse gain more incline

In reverse seem more logical CAUTION: the crux balanced boulder you have to cross has a little wobble in it, thought it was in my mind so pushed my body weight forward and it’s for sure is moving Wouldn’t want anyone to go down with it

This route came highly recommended to me by Phil Box as being one of the best day hikes he'd ever done, and it did not disappoint! All three stars are very well deserved.

We were a group of five, and took as many hours car to car at a leisurely pace. Four hours return is a good estimate if you don't plan to pause long for breaks or pitch out the exposed section as we did.

I'd recommend continuing toward the ridge in the direction you breech the tree line, rather than turning right. The scrambling is very straightforward and not grade 5-6 as the description suggests, in my opinion.

There are only four down climbs of note, none are difficult and I wouldn't suggest they need any tatt.

We chose to carry a rope, but only pulled it out to protect the traverse around Rodeo Rock. It was just as well we did, as one of our members blew a seemingly bomber hold and would surely have hit the deck without it. Do you need a rope? Probably not. The moves aren't at all difficult, but the exposure won't forgive a slip.

Great adventure! Truly like climbing along a stegosaurus’ spine!! Exciting position, mostly straight forward scrambling with a few thought-provoking sections. The best climbing is in the second half of the full traverse - it is worth going along the whole length. There is some exposure but we felt comfortable throughout unroped and in approach shoes.

Nice climbing. Rock quality was a bit suspect in places but plenty of sufficient pro if you search for it.

Fun early morning hike. Bit of bush bashing to get back.

Reversed the middle third from the top of Bojangles toward North Peak- utterly unique! Must return for the full traverse!

An epic adventure. A rope is highly recommended as some sessions are very exposed. Bring some trad gear and slings.

First trad and first multipitch all in one. Very easy and very enjoyable.

Great day out! If you're taking someone new to scrambling and exposure expect to take longer than 3 - 4 hours. We took 6hrs car to car. Used the rope twice, once at the down climb where the sling is (obvious block seemed a bit loose so used something a bit further back). Lowered partner and then down climbed myself. Second time was over the oft mentioned block. Easy moves, but lots of exposure. Scramble definitely gets more exciting towards the back end. We descended the obvious gully near the end. Continued straight on, skirting/scrambling over the rocks on our right into a clear patch. This was the heaviest scrub, then linked up open sections back to the start. Always stay high if in doubt to avoid the thick scrub.

Amazing! Such a beautiful climb along the spine of the stegasaurus. A couple of interesting moves. We opted to not ride the rodeo boulder but to climb below and traverse with much exposure! We didn’t take rope but climbing shoes were very handy.

Nice and easy cruise climb from bottom to top with lovely view on top. I did only as 2 pitches

A 'must do' for the area. If you are confident with exposure, no ropes are necessary, otherwise a small handline would be useful for less experienced parties

An awesome traverse! We took 2.5 hours car to car, but we took no gear and just a bit of water. The sunset from the top was incredible! I would recommend taking ropes and some slings for the thousands of chicken heads if you have an inexperienced group. There are a few options to scramble down. We did it in trail runners.

Epic epic epic! One of the coolest routes I’ve done!

With a fair bit of frothing/time for photos, Paul and I took approx 3.5 hours car to car.

The first 1400ish metres are pretty straight-forward, more hiking than climbing, but then it kicks into some pretty epic exposure after that! There are some interesting/thoughtful/committing moves over very exposed terrain that less experienced parties may want to consider bringing a rope for.

Felt harder than a 3 in places, maybe more towards the 6-8 grade towards the end of the traverse going by soloing comparisons to Mt Macedon, Tip toe ridge at Arapiles or Freeway in the Flatirons.

Second time on this lovely ramble. Great to see the gravity-defying rodeo block is still there! Mantling that boulder was still as nerve-wracking and hilarious as last time.

Fantastic adventure on an amazing ridge line! Definitely take a short rope to protect at least one of the high consequence moves.

Excellent climb with plenty of good pro and mega jugs. The first pitch is the money, but the whole thing is fantastic. Careful of rope drag on the first pitch, take plenty of long extenders.

Daymmmm fun! done in approachies 2 hrs 30 car to car

damned exposed must be more than grade 3

very cool, nice rocks, pretty views, a spicy ending. i definitely had exposure fatigue at the end. really awesome, i haven't done anything like this before. took us 5+ hours, including lunch and a healthy amount of faff

super fun day of scrambling with some stunning views and a goat

Extremely worthwhile outing with an alpine character. The best bit is the southern section where it gets into the roughest terrain. Not a single other person on the ridge the day we were there (on Easter long weekend).

Worth the whole trip!! What a fantastic view...we made it trickier than 3 at times!!

A lovely jaunt well worth a sneaky day trip

Gorgeous views with a mostly chill route, until a couple of metres in the final third. Awesome to be able to see the mountains from such a unique perspective and climb the dinosaur. Completed this unroped as a solo party as Mum wasn’t too keen on it. About 4hrs car to car with an already sore leg. So happy to say that I’ve completed this route.

Took a beginner up here without ropes, leaving a bit late in the day due to the fact it had been raining and we only had this particular opportunity to climb it before leaving.

We took headtorches with the plan that, surely at grade 3 we'll be able to continue in the dark if we are too slow. However it turned out to be a bit slippery from the rain and quite difficult and risky for a complete novice, resulting in us moving very slowly and getting stuck up the top in the dark.

We used a space blanket and sheltered behind a rock to avoid some of the wind, and waited out the night.

The next day, we were able to slowly make our way through to the end, with parts near the end feeling more exposed and technically challenging than the earlier stages of the climb, with parts feeling around grade 6 to me, which were a serious undertaking for my partner.

Overall it was an excellent route, but next time I will definitely be more prepared, and give more respect to each route, even when it has such an easy grade.

good day out to summit
