Supposedly an easy approach means a bush bash, getting lost and a rap. Very fun route tho and almost worth it.

Low psyche day. Wigged out facing a sketchy fall and took. Then later took a fall and grazed my arm and lowered grumpily. Fantastic technical climbing

wouldn't have found the route if it weren't for the lovely locals we bumped into! sketchy approach (what i thought was, at this point in time haha). felt bad when i heard my 'FUCK' echo through the gorge. such a simple line and it 100% deserves the tassie tiger symbol. was in awe for at least two days after

Superb, awesome piece of rock to climb. Worth a trip just to climb this. Little hard to find though, got to squeeze through hole at end on crag.

	13	★★ Thin Man	Trad 10m	★ Good	Nick Morgan
Another good easier trad pitch..with an exciting finish
	18	★ Skinny Girl	Trad 10m	★★ Very Good	Nick Morgan
Beaut route! Bulging hand crack into intimidating window peep hole weirdness. Take a big sling for the top of pillar and finish up at DBB.

New fixed hanger is great. Still for the life of me can’t really comprehend where the trad placements are supposed to be. Maybe I’m blind. Just clipped the carrots again..

	22	★ Chunky But Funky - with Hannah Rose, Maddie Campbell	Mixed trad 10m, 2		Tam Scott
Put an extended draw from the anchor to make the run out a bit less intimidating, definitley helped the head.

With the right beta, this is less height specific, but definitely reach the way I went.

Surprisingly independent variant start. Healthy amount of spice thrown in to keep you on your toes. A #4 camalot works well getting to 1st bolt.

Nice movement. Cruxy start, into pumpy slabbing up sidepull rails. Also top roped a RH variant up double aretes that links in at 3rd bolt at about the same grade

	25	★★ When the Fat Lady Sings - with Gerry Narkowicz	Mixed trad 10m, 3	★★ Very Good	Patrick Munnings
Sent in full sun, definate ground fall if you came off clipping the 2nd bolt, which is a little scary considering there are no handholds. The rest of the bolting is good and nuts or small cams can be taken for the top if desired. A super quality and technical route.
	25	★★ When the Fat Lady Sings - with Gerry Narkowicz	Mixed trad 10m, 3	★★ Very Good	Patrick Munnings
Sussed moves and hung draws. climbed very diferently to what I expected

back on after central flake came off last time. Actually makes it more interesting/varied/fun climbing.
	20	★★★ Thin Fiend - with Nick Morgan	Sport 10m, 4		Tam Scott
glad I led it strait up, second bolt less airy than expected, my head kicked in at the 3rd. Bomber climb
	19	★★ Crucifix - with Nick Morgan	Mixed trad 12m, 3		Tam Scott
Brutal end to the day. Nice moves but hard if your shoulders still fit through doorways

	19	★★ Crucifix	Mixed trad 12m, 3	★★★ Classic	Nick Morgan
Still bloody hard!! Big balance thug stuff. Accidentally took the RH variant start and almost had an epic. Take cams BD .5 - 3 for the breaks.
	20	★★★ Thin Fiend	Sport 10m, 4	★★★ Classic	Nick Morgan
	18	You're Fat! - with Tam Scott	Sport 7m, 2	★ Good	Nick Morgan
Think it actually climbs better now the big jug has peeled off. Maybe a little harder, but still close to grade. Keeping off the RH block gives you best bang for buck
