Description

Generally good rock and good quality problems - as you go north (closer to conto spring) the rock becomes more chossy.

Approach

Go down Conto Rd off Caves Rd, continue onto the non-sealed part for 2-3kms. There should be a sign at the second right with merchant rock written on it, take that right and continue straight until a car park at the end (round rock carpark). The boulders can be seen from the car park and extending right along the coast towards conto spring.

Grade Route

Sit start on the left and work your way right through the undercling crack.

Sit start as for 'Biceps Boogie (#17)', but instead of traversing right to finish do a long move up and around the bulge from the underclings to a jug and top out straight up.

Sit start and squeeze your way up and over into the slab. Cool feature

Sit start and squeeze your way up. Name? Grade?

Highball. Sit start on low flake then up slopey holds avoiding the left boulder.

Easy and exposed.

Sit start low on the left in the cave with flakes and power out to the lip with some shouldery moves. Traverse the lip right and top out. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IseB-_HIqyA

Sit start on obvious jug and up. Squashy to start.

Stand start with slopey ramp and up around the left of the obvious block.

Stand start as #11 and head straight up the obvious black streak.

Stand start at #11 and #12 and traverse right with balancy moves to top out.

Sit start on the left with edges. Up to big jugs and top.

Sit start low on the overhang - up to jug and top (finishing as for #14)

Sit start and up the obvious prow. Cool feature - bit crumbly...
