Nodes in Upper Range

Some outstanding boulders of varying size, many are large and require some protection. Quality is good with large crystals, common to the rock on the moonbies.

Most of the boulders in the Upper Moonbi range are highballs, having said that the more accessible smaller ones seem to be in the Southern Cluster.

Just south of the safety ramp close to the highway. A boulder that looks like many things, with a good landing.

Exceptionally featured boulder on the edge of the safety ramp. Semi protected from rain, possible wet weather boulder.

Right to left traverse using the horizontal crack

obvious crack on the west side. Would need protection, or a mountain of pads, landing area is uneven but ok.

Boulder Cave! For granite this cave has a lot of features. A couple of easy problems but many challenging ones. Great for a dry climb after wet weather.

Start just left of the Fracture work left using the high slopey jugs and then to crimpers and back down. feet are the little edges .5 to 1m off the deck.

The way off on the hill side wall, also good for scouting holds on other climbs. Really needs a clean, from fine dust. Can be very slippery. Walk up the flake or hang from it.

The north western part of the second Moonbie. Home to some very large boulders..

A series of large stacked boulders, running parallel to the highway. With a large flake in front of the main section and cave.

An obvious crack runs up the west side of the first boulder. Harder than it looks - pro down low tricky to place. Some technical moves up crack (wires, SLCDs) to a good jug and easier to top. Belay in crack atop boulder. Down climb dead tree leaning against northern side.

A perfect hand jam up the eastern side of the Fast Rack weakness. A real pearl - if only it were 50m.

Boulder up off the creek on the South side.

Uniquely Featured Granite

A group of boulders east of the end of the for wheel drive track (car park, for lack of a better word). There is three in the circle the top boulder has a piece of granite the size of a fridge hanging dangerously out the side. The smaller of the three is feature packed and closest the the 4x4 track and the other has a tree leaning against it that can be used like a ladder.

On the top boulder. Named after the stone precariously place right in the landing spot. Sit start on the right corner, up then traverse left to mantle.

The left trending edge of slopers. On the Boulder opposite Anal probe.

Brain shaped boulder along the creek on the western side of Area 51 hill.

Easy, good warm up maybe even do a few laps.

Wide boulder with a detached small boulder next to it along the creek.

Easy way just to check it all out, leave it mossy makes a climb out of it.

On the small boulder between the two, avoid the boulder behind you. Sharp and crimpy.

Dyno start onto the sharp mantle,your hands will love it!

Highly featured buttress just up off the creek. Has one side that the granite seems to be as stable as Mel Gibson, so tread lightly there. The unstable stuff is more golden and crumbly, much like the inside of a violent crumble bar. Really needs roping unless you have epic cajones.

Creek side boulder that resembles a crashed Captain Kirk's ship.

Access is tricky, there is no stopping at all on the north bound lane except at the top. The south bound has a pull off area where its safe to park.

Up the left, keep inside and use a hand jam in the awkward upper crack.

Start on the left same as Abducted but stay out slightly to avoid using the arkward hand jam and reach over the top to the sharp jug or crack.

Large boulder with a distinctive crack in a 90 degree corner

Great layback or jam.

Buttress consisting of two very large boulders on the top of the hill. Can be seen from the other side of the valley. Some problems will be highballs and others will require roping. plenty of flakes and crimps to get your grey scaly fingers on.

Large cathedral shaped boulder just south and below The Mother Ship.

Best not to fall. Slabby highball problem with delicate balance moves. Crimps if you can find them.

Start on edge and side pull, move up to the good feature, and establish a heel and palm press. Very little up higher so the top out is committing, so trust the feet and mantle. Great climb.

Cube shaped boulder half way up the hill and slightly south of Vulcan High Command

Sit Start pull onto the lower edge. up via some crimpers with a slopey mantle.

Feature packed, fun sized boulder.

sit start at bottom of fracture. Left up crack, traverse left using the mantle as hands. Presently very mossy and slippery. Watch for lose blocks! Death spike at the bottom will be removed.

Buttress of quality granite, made up of large stacked boulders Potential for some quality high ball boulder problems or top roping.

Gully between Area 51 and The Resort. Low yielding area and granite is of lower quality and some can be crumbly but tends to have a lot of features. Great if you want a change from crimping, but bring your tape if you want to make a day out of it.

High Quality White Granite

Located nearly all the way up the south side of the hill. Plenty of features, with the horizontal cracks being the most predominant.

Easy fun climb up the left side.

Right of Tequila Mockingbird start on the small crimps up to the mossy mantle, top out slightly right of Tequila. There's a nice jug just got to reach for it.

Small crimp start to high side pull come crack. Mantle then up slightly left on the upper slab. Look for a grouping of crystals to crimp on. A prior FA high fall resulted in a climber-spotter head clash, fortunately both parties were ok and recovered over a cold bevie that night.
