	18	★★★ Orca	Sport 25m, 8	Nowra	★ Good	Zorba Parer	Sat 24th Jun 2006
Fucking scary first and second bolts, advise climbing korca and then setting clips on first two.
	18	★★★ Orca	Sport 25m, 8	Nowra	★★ Very Good	Zave	Sun 2nd Jul 2023
I was too pumped and fell a couple of metres before reaching the anchors.
	18	★★ Korca	Sport 24m, 7	Nowra	Don't Bother	Zac Schofield	Mon 29th Oct 2018
It probably had a lot to do with how exhausted I was but this climb was absolutley awful
	19	★★ The Money or the Box	Sport 25m, 6	Nowra	★★ Very Good	Zac Schofield	Mon 13th Dec 2021
Apparently I’ve done this before. Good climb but rather spicy in approach shoes (wouldn’t recommend).
	18	★★★ Orca	Sport 25m, 8	Nowra	★★★ Mega Classic	Zac Schofield	Tue 7th Jun 2022
Warmup
	18	★★ Korca	Sport 24m, 7	Nowra	★ Good	z_swander	Sat 14th Jun 2014
Just finish up Orca. The meat is in the first few moves
	17	★ Slap & Tickle	Sport 14m	Nowra	★ Good	z_swander	Sat 13th Sep 2014
Good Warm up.
	18	★★★ Orca	Sport 25m, 8	Nowra	★★★ Mega Classic	Xander Beccari	Mon 14th Nov 2011
simply awesome, great moves, great holds, good exposure
	18	★★★ Orca - with Brett and co	Sport 25m, 8	Nowra		Wuji	Sat 26th Apr 2014
Great climb, seconded it 'cos was too much of a wuss to lead it first up.... Will have to try leading it next time.
	18	★★★ Orca	Sport 25m, 8	Nowra	★★★ Classic	Woody	Thu 16th May 2019
Didnt actually do orca, accidentally became a gumby and linked orca into The Money or the Box. Will come back for sure and do the main climb.
	18	★★ Korca - with gsmizz, Ewan Barry, Tim McEldowney	Sport 24m, 7	Nowra		Will Gregson	Mon 1st Aug 2022
Wasn't bad
	15	★ Left-hand Lichen - with gsmizz, Ewan Barry, Tim McEldowney	Sport 22m	Nowra		Will Gregson	Mon 1st Aug 2022
Some nice and spicy run outs but grade 15 climbing
	17	★ Slap & Tickle - with gsmizz, Ewan Barry, Tim McEldowney	Sport 14m	Nowra		Will Gregson	Mon 1st Aug 2022
First climb of the day nice warm up
	18	★★★ Orca	Sport 25m, 8	Nowra	★★★ Mega Classic	Warren Price	Sun 23rd Feb 2014
Such a fun route. Love the massive pockets lower down
	18	★★★ Orca	Sport 25m, 8	Nowra	★★★ Classic	Wall	Sun 2nd Sep 2018
Classic but polished
	17	★ Slap & Tickle	Sport 14m	Nowra	★ Good	Wall	Sun 2nd Sep 2018
Tricky at the top esspecialy with approach shoes
	17	★ Snoop Dog	Sport 25m	Nowra	★ Good	Voonhui Lai	Mon 1st Nov 2021
Tricky first bit for shorter stature
	18	★★★ Orca - with Wade Stewart	Sport 25m, 8	Nowra	★★★ Classic	Viona Young	Thu 11th Jun 2015
Super Rad Fun, might be more a 17
	18	★★ Korca - with Wade Stewart	Sport 24m, 7	Nowra	★ Good	Viona Young	Sun 19th Jul 2015
It would have been an insight if I didn't freak at the fourth bolt & grab the draw!
	17	★ Slap & Tickle	Sport 14m	Nowra	★ Good	Viona Young	Thu 14th Apr 2016
Not bad.
	16	★ Hairy Harriet - with lous Blundell	Sport 14m, 8	Nowra	Average	Viona Young	Sat 2nd Jul 2016
Finger pulley injury day.
	17	★ Snoop Dog - with lous Blundell	Sport 25m	Nowra	★ Good	Viona Young	Sat 2nd Jul 2016
Started putting draws on but came down & let Lous do it. Finger injury day.
	18	★★ Korca - with Gilles	Sport 24m, 7	Nowra	★ Good	Viona Young	Tue 16th May 2017
This climb still rattles me. But I didn't pull on a draw today - like when I got rattled the first time - & no longer have a dog on it. Yay.
	19	★★ The Money or the Box - with Gilles	Sport 25m, 6	Nowra	★★ Very Good	Viona Young	Tue 16th May 2017
Couldn't reach a critical hold & had to do a rather sketchy traverse. Took me two shots to work up the courage.
	17	★ Slap & Tickle	Sport 14m	Nowra	★ Good	Viona Young	Tue 2nd Jul 2019
Repeat.
	16	★ Hairy Harriet	Sport 14m, 8	Nowra	Average	Viona Young	Tue 2nd Jul 2019
Repeat.
	18	★★ Korca	Sport 24m, 7	Nowra	★★★ Mega Classic	Vincent Trepanier	Sat 26th Apr 2003
Awesome climb ! Very exposed
	15	★ Left-hand Lichen - with Vegard Braut Kyllingstad	Sport 22m	Nowra		Vegard Braut Kyllingstad	Fri 10th Apr 2015
Top part wet after rain
	18	★★★ Orca - with Angi Kim	Sport 25m, 8	Nowra	★★★ Classic	Vanessa Zhang	Sun 15th Mar 2015
Coming back to finish this one off!
	15	★ Left-hand Lichen (Mossy Climb LHV)	Sport 22m	Nowra	Don't Bother	Vanessa Wills	Mon 16th Aug 2010
Just killing time while Ryan replaced cleaning biners on Orca. Maybe good for beginners
	17	★ Slap & Tickle	Sport 14m	Nowra	★ Good	Vanessa Wills	Sun 23rd May 2004
had to clean the dog from belayer pulling me off last year.
	18	★★★ Orca	Sport 25m, 8	Nowra	★★ Very Good	Vanessa Wills	Wed 3rd Sep 2003
pretty easy
	19	★★ The Money or the Box	Sport 25m, 6	Nowra	★★ Very Good	Vanessa Wills	Sun 23rd May 2004
really nice features
	18	★★★ Orca - with Tyler Sydney	Sport 25m, 8	Nowra	★★★ Classic	Tyler Sydney	Sat 10th Oct 2020
Easier than Korca
	18	★★ Korca	Sport 24m, 7	Nowra	★★★ Classic	Tyler Sydney	Sat 10th Oct 2020
Harder than orca by at least a grade. Needed to start on orca side of arret
	18	★★★ Orca	Sport 25m, 8	Nowra	★★★ Mega Classic	Tristan Webber	Mon 14th Apr 2003
Good moves. Airy.. Especially when I missed 2 bolts!! (Duh!!)
	16	★ Hairy Harriet - with Doug Bell	Sport 14m, 8	Nowra		Trevor Kettlewell	Sat 7th Dec 2013
Had to stop on the rope and take a look to get to the 2nd bolt. Next time.
	15	★ Left-hand Lichen - with Richard Rebel	Sport 22m	Nowra		Trevor Kettlewell	Mon 16th Dec 2013
Bit of a runout between 3rd & 4th bolts. Then I forgot to clip the 5th and had to go back.
	15	★ Mossy Climb RHV - with Richard Rebel	Sport 22m, 7	Nowra		Trevor Kettlewell	Mon 16th Dec 2013
Just have to commit at that crux.
	18	★★★ Orca - with Mike Abbott, Jono Ketttlewell	Sport 25m, 8	Nowra		Trevor Kettlewell	Fri 20th Dec 2013
Nice start, slipped off twice trying to reach for the ledge half-wayup, too much of a pain to swing about trying to get back on a 3rd time.
	16	★ Hairy Harriet - with Mike Abbott, Jono Ketttlewell	Sport 14m, 8	Nowra		Trevor Kettlewell	Fri 20th Dec 2013
I told you I'd get it next time. Thanks to Jono & Mike patiently waiting while I got comfortable with the first two moves on a top rope before leading it.
	16	★ Hairy Harriet - with Jack Hinde	Sport 14m, 8	Nowra	★ Good	Trevor Kettlewell	Sat 31st May 2014
Nice to come back after a break and feel really comfortable leading this.
	15	★ Left-hand Lichen - with Doug Bell, Liam Sansour	Sport 22m	Nowra		Trevor Kettlewell	Sun 14th Sep 2014
Nice little warm up after a bit of a break from leading
	15	★ Mossy Climb RHV - with Jack and Kieran	Sport 22m, 7	Nowra		Trevor Kettlewell	Tue 23rd Sep 2014
Slightly harder than lefthand lichen. Nice little warm up.
	18	★★★ Orca - with Jack and Kieran	Sport 25m, 8	Nowra	★★ Very Good	Trevor Kettlewell	Tue 23rd Sep 2014
Yay, got past the middle bit without plunging into the chasm.
	18	★★ Korca - with Jack and Kieran	Sport 24m, 7	Nowra		Trevor Kettlewell	Tue 23rd Sep 2014
Dammit, seriously about a foot away from joining up with Orca that I'd just done.
	18	★★ Korca - with Jack Hinde, Jeff Wyatt	Sport 24m, 7	Nowra		Trevor Kettlewell	Wed 14th Jan 2015
Thanks to Jack and Jeff for leaving the rope in for me. Felt so much more comfortable linking up with Orca this time. I still get hassled by the height, helps if I imagine I'm starting again once past the crucial ledge in the middle. And even though it's long, it's slabbily friendly: you can pause and rest/compose yourself all the way up.
	17	★ Snoop Dog - with Jakob Kapelj, dave	Sport 25m	Nowra		Trevor Kettlewell	Sat 7th Feb 2015
Fell at the slightly tricky bottom, but did the move fine when coming down. Next time.
	18	★ What In The World - with Jakob Kapelj, Dave	Sport 16m, 6	Nowra		Trevor Kettlewell	Sat 7th Feb 2015
Really just that one committing move over the nose (not so scary on top rope anyway)
	18	★★ Korca - with Dave, Scott	Sport 24m, 7	Nowra		Trevor Kettlewell	Sat 7th Feb 2015
Still too many heebie-jeebies with the chasm on your left.
	17	★ Snoop Dog - with Dave Eckersley	Sport 25m	Nowra		Trevor Kettlewell	Sun 12th Apr 2015
First try at leading this one. Added just enough fear to see me hesitate on low bolts so I was too pumped out to finish the last move. Annoying I had my last draw on the wrong side when I could have clipped it - then fell off on the next 10 attempts. Not that I'm making excuses...
	19	★★ The Money or the Box - with Jack Hinde	Sport 25m, 6	Nowra		Trevor Kettlewell	Fri 17th Apr 2015
Might have snuck a bit left of the crux
	17	★ Slap & Tickle - with Jack Hinde	Sport 14m	Nowra		Trevor Kettlewell	Fri 17th Apr 2015
One silly fall lunging for a sloper to the left when there was a perfectly good jug around the arete to the right.
	19	★★ The Money or the Box - with scott	Sport 25m, 6	Nowra		Trevor Kettlewell	Mon 27th Apr 2015
Got through all the moves with Scott's beta - can imagine doing it clean now
	19	★★ The Money or the Box - with Scott	Sport 25m, 6	Nowra		Trevor Kettlewell	Mon 11th Jan 2016
Gotcha
	17	★ Slap & Tickle - with Elliot, douglas	Sport 14m	Nowra		Trevor Kettlewell	Sat 7th May 2016
I'd probably nudge it up to an 18
	16	★ LHV start to W.I.T.W - with Jack Hinde	Sport 17m	Nowra	Average	Trevor Kettlewell	Wed 28th Sep 2016
Nothing particularly inspiring
	18	★ Heathen - with Jack Hinde	Sport 25m, 9	Nowra		Trevor Kettlewell	Wed 28th Sep 2016
Doable, but I'll need to sort a sequence first and have more than end of the day finger strength for the crimpy start. Fun finish.
	17	★ Slap & Tickle - with Dave Eckersley, Morgan, Min-Anh	Sport 14m	Nowra		Trevor Kettlewell	Sat 1st Jul 2017
Top half a bit sustained, and you want to know where the holds are - no time to faff about.
	19	★★ The Money or the Box - with Dave Eckersley, Morgan, Min-Anh	Sport 25m, 6	Nowra		Trevor Kettlewell	Sat 1st Jul 2017
Who said I went around the crux? C'mon, say it to my face - that left variant is perfectly acceptable. What do you mean defensive?! You're defensive.
	18	★★★ Orca - with Morag	Sport 25m, 8	Nowra		Trevor Kettlewell	Tue 10th Oct 2017
Korca start, Orca finish. Makes it a little harder, I reckon - having to step up and feel for holds around the arete that may or may not be there (unless, unlike me, you have a memory)
	19	★★ The Money or the Box - with Troy Clifton	Sport 25m, 6	Nowra		Trevor Kettlewell	Thu 16th Sep 2021
Left route at the bottom crux
	18	★★★ Orca - with Cadeyn Mclellan	Sport 25m, 8	Nowra		Trevor Kettlewell	Sun 3rd Oct 2021
First time I've actually done the proper off to the left finish.
	18	★ Heathen - with Cadeyn Mclellan	Sport 25m, 9	Nowra		Trevor Kettlewell	Sun 3rd Oct 2021
Did have a go at the lead and took a nice(?) bruising rope-burning face first lead fall at the lip (note to self: left-hand side pull, high LEFT foot). Hate how the far right bolt forces huge abrasions on a standard draw. Anyway, back for the top-rope, happy how I did the first three or four bolts much more comfortably both times today.
	18	★★★ Orca - with Cadeyn Mclellan	Sport 25m, 8	Nowra	★★ Very Good	Trevor Kettlewell	Mon 18th Sep 2023
Went left at top for Korca finish
	17	★ Slap & Tickle	Sport 14m	Nowra	★★ Very Good	Trent Lee	Sat 14th Aug 2004
very enjoyable, deserves another star
	18	★★★ Orca	Sport 25m, 8	Nowra	★★★ Classic	Trent Lee	Sun 6th Jun 2004
awesome climb, very pleasant
	18	★★ Korca	Sport 24m, 7	Nowra	Average	Trent Lee	Sun 6th Jun 2004
ok but no where near as good as orca
	19	★★ The Money or the Box	Sport 25m, 6	Nowra	★ Good	Trent Lee	Sun 6th Jun 2004
nice, goey start
	17	★ Snoop Dog	Sport 25m	Nowra	★★ Very Good	Tracey Joyce	Sat 26th Sep 2009
Bit of a hard start!
	18	★★★ Orca	Sport 25m, 8	Nowra	★★★ Classic	Tracey Hua	Sun 26th Aug 2012
Ahhh so much fun!!!! Huge pockets, had some fun jumping around hehe
	18	★★ Korca	Sport 24m, 7	Nowra	★★ Very Good	Tony Williams	Sun 25th Jun 2006
great climb. esay tick for 18. 16 after first moves
	19	★★ The Money or the Box	Sport 25m, 6	Nowra	★ Good	Tony Williams	Sun 17th Jul 2005
few hard moves down low then an easy cruise to top, easy 19.
	18	★★ Korca	Sport 24m, 7	Nowra	★ Good	Tony Williams	Mon 9th Aug 2004
nice positions
	18	★★★ Orca	Sport 25m, 8	Nowra	★★ Very Good	Tony Williams	Sun 17th Jul 2005
OK.bitdangerous if you fell off anywhere in first 10m! I think Korca is better.
	17	★ Slap & Tickle	Sport 14m	Nowra	★★ Very Good	Tony Williams	Sun 17th Jul 2005
great route, deserves more stars, hard for 17
	18	★★★ Orca - with Kat Hayhoe	Sport 25m, 8	Nowra	★★★ Mega Classic	Tommathy swift	Thu 30th Dec 2021
One of the most flowy climbs in my life, 100% would do even if it's above your pay grade.
	16	★ Hairy Harriet - with Kat Hayhoe	Sport 14m, 8	Nowra	★★ Very Good	Tommathy swift	Thu 30th Dec 2021
Cheeky cruxy start. Put my friend on it as her first lead ever. Not great idea
	18	★★ Korca	Sport 24m, 7	Nowra		Tommathy swift	Wed 27th Jul 2022
Bit windy, anchor would suck if you are Tinara Braham
	18	★★★ Orca	Sport 25m, 8	Nowra	★★★ Mega Classic	Tommathy swift	Sat 19th Aug 2023
Classy
	18	★★ Korca	Sport 24m, 7	Nowra	★★★ Classic	Tom Kinny	Thu 15th Jul 2004

Much easier through the crux this time.

Took a whip halfway to shake the nerves
	18	★★★ Orca - with Aaron Abela, Nick Gowland	Sport 25m, 8	Nowra	★★★ Classic	Timothy Brunette	Sat 14th Jan 2023

absolute ball on this one. lots of fun.

underrated and really enjoyable
