Up the left hand end of the wave-washed wall just north of Lost Buttress. Good horizontal breaks followed by small positive holds lead up the often wet wall.

FA: 2013

Start low down at the base of the easy arête at the far left end of the crag. Amble up the arête to reach to ledge, then ape up the hanging arête.

FA: 2013

Pleasant moves up the bottom wall, clip the BR followed by tricky moves to get established on the head wall.

FA: 2013

Weave your way up the lower wall heading left, right or over the bush. From the ledge, the face provides great climbing.

FA: 2013

Weave your way up the lower wall heading left, right or over the bush. From the ledge, bridge up the corner.

FA: 2013

Enjoyable, varied climbing. Head straight up the face immediately right of the arête that offers a well-protected out there feeling.

FA: 2013

A great, consistent and airy climb. Up the wall, then balance over the blocks before committing moves up the flake.

FA: 2013

The classic of the crag up the steepening wall with increasing difficulty before an outrageous move to get established on the final headwall.

FA: 2013

A committing climb with good holds and gear. Up the slab and over the small overlap, then scramble up into the corner under the big roof. Traverse left into an exposed position and climb up into shallow corner. Step right along the horizontal break before finishing through the small three-tiered roof.

FA: 2013

Fun consistent climbing, up the unprotected slab, then make a bee line for the top on great holds.

FA: 2013

A wonderful line, the bottom slab is protected by a BR (bolt plate required) after which the gear and holds come with some thought provoking moves in-between. Finish up the flake.

FA: 2013
