Routes in Morialta

Start as for Barad Dur. Once on the ledge step left so that you are below and 1m left of Barad Dur's crackline and climb directly up, staying within a metre of the crack. If you're on route the first bolt of Pizazz can be clipped prior to heading up but then you are relying on side runners in Barad Dur.

Swing up the steep juggy wall immediately left of Eternal Damnation's undercut arete past a big rattly block to a ledge. Step right and go up to the roof. Now make a cramped step back left past a bolt onto an undercut wall to reach the base of the crack. Straight up the crack.

Start: Follow Barrud Dur to the roof, then nip back right under this to a crack, which is climbed.

The face between Eternal Damnation's Arete and Lord's Prayer's Corner. Both of these routes are off limits. Begin as for Eternal Damnation and then continue up the face avoiding the arete of Eternal Damnation and corner of Lord's Prayer.

Worth its grade for the start and some nice bridging moves up the corner.

Start: Up the left hand corner to the right of 'Shewoodenduit'.

Crux is essential unprotected, not a good climb for a grade 17 leader

Start: Start at the boulder and make a nice move to gain the V - corner.

“Up the wall Right of RESURRECTION to a squatting rest beneath the Roof, Step left , Clip a bolt - Then fight Up to the nipple on the arete. Finish up the HAND CRACK. There are variants but the above mentioned is most popular “ Rock climbing around Adelaide. George Adams , John Dutton (14M3) 1970 TR Jim Olsen 20.10.74 FFLA Henry Barber 15.4.75 (19) FFLA Rod Young 18.9.79 (22)

Start: Start from the olive tree. Up the open corner. Great introductory route.

The arete just right of Sheoak Corner

Climb the groove to a ramp below the roof. Over the roof and follow the crack.

Start: Over the bulge 1 metre right of 'Golgotha'. Up to the ledge right of the nose. Head up the groove just right of the arete.

Up crack 1m R of Golgotha to base of rib. Place good #1 cam. Straight up rib to stance at start of Tai Otoshi's groove. Finish up that route.

Wall with thin crack between Tai-o-Toshi and Ob-La-Di. Wouldn't be a FA, this may flush out the truth.

The central line on the wall, taking care not to fall astride the sharp blade. Fortunately the protection is adequate. "Rock Climbing Around Adelaide"

The corner on the right end of the red wall. "Rock Climbing Around Adelaide"

The unappealing corner left of the Bung wall.

Wall left of Bung Direct, staying out of the corner and not touching the central crack.

The central crack. The first (aided) route up the wall took 16 years before it went free.

"Original" in that it was the first variant on the wall to go free.

Climb 'Bung Direct' to below the crux, step R, make a move up and then back L to the crack.

The most common way up the wall. Follow 'Bung Original' but do not move back L. Finish up the face between the crack and arete.

Climb the R side of the wall, the crack and arete are off limits.

Lace the crack up with cams and nuts. Has a nice move just before topping out.

Start: Climb the vertical crack just right of bung wall.

The corner R of 'Shedidit'

The black streak L of Illequipt, using that route for protection only.

Start up Illequipt Left Side and then move up and R into the Illequipt crack.

Move straight up on the right hand side of the wall until you reach a small block with a letter box slot. Step left and follow the crack.

Start: Start on the right hand side of the wall right of 'Shedidit' crack.

Move directly up on the right hand side of the wall right of Illiquipt, avoiding the arete. Protection a little thin.

The obvious arete. Not well protected.

The wall left of Asgard. Not allowed to use Asgard's holds.

Follow the flake in the centre of the first wall left of the descent route.

Stay R of the crack for holds and protection. The acronym was Mark's idea.

Ledges and large cracks on the R of the asgard wall. The groove through the overhang is awkward.

Full traverse of Far Crag!

Around R of the descent.

Arete and wall L of the Start corner. Okay protection.

Start: Start on the left side of the orange wall. Nice continuous climbing up the flake. Gain a rest on the ledge and continue up the arete.

Climb Muesli then at the Extra G variant move R to below the bulge and continue directly up the face L of Extra G.

Start up Muesli (trad gear) then reverse the traverse of Extra G Connection straight into the crux of Geronimo's Cadillac, then finish as for Geronimo's Corvette. Longest route on the wall.

Very nice sustained wall climb.

Start: Start as for muesli and continue for 6 metres to where 2 small horizontals allow you step out on to the wall to the right. Climb over a small bulge to reach a thin seam and follow this to where it curls of right. Clip the bolt and go for the top.

Start up Geronimo's Cadillac. Traverse left after the first bolt to join Extra G.

Starts up Geronimo's Cadillac as far as the second bolt then goes up and a little left from there: a couple of fine vertical crimps off to the left and then straight over the bulge to grab a quartz knob, swings up and there is a nice sequence of dynamic moves on the lip of the bulge reminiscent of a skateboarding move.

From the skateboard move the route continues straight up (small crystal finger pocket) and a tricky sequence at the top, sustained until the last move. The line avoids all the holds on Muesli and Extra G.

Takes a direct line after the 2nd bolt (basically eliminating the jug rest to the right). Contrived, but if you want the 26 label, this is the way to do it. Has over the years been muddled with the RHV (25 - and the obvious line using the jug).

GC but with the benefit of using the jug out right. The standard way of climbing this line nowadays, and mistaken as the full 26 version by many.

Take Geronimo's Cadillac (direct version) to the half height rest, then launch past 2 more bolts through a final boulder problem right of the original finish. Slightly harder than GC.
