Routes as boulder in Granite Belt

Bouldery sit start proj on good sized holds. Funky. Named after watching a hard warm up flash by a ol timer- “was that your warm up?” The ol timer replied, "I never really cool down"

Straight up front face using sidepulls, slopers and crimps. Top out up high slab, arete.

Stand start hands on positive edges then straight up with various good edges.

Stand or jump start on the left side of the bloc, with choice of jugs LH and RH edge. Punch straight up to a tall top.

Who doesn’t like dynamic climbing on crimps. Stand start in the vertical crack, with small crimps for hands. Nice rock and sustained moves.

Hope you have been training your crimp strength on 8mm’s. Squat start on the left side of the bloc, matched on low recognizable crimp rail, now traverse leftwards into “8 months of Winter”. Finish as this.

Mantle up into scoop on the lowest and easiest looking part of this boulder.

Tall, bold, high ball slab. Start in a stand to the right of the Graffiti piece, and dance your way up to a delirious top. Bring many pads, these walls don’t lie.

Stand start on left side of face, up to obvious pocket then head rightwards and up. Left boulder is out. Balancy, reachy and brilliant.

The Boulder behind “Kamikazi”. Up thin and solid slab face.

Right of Backwoods. Start on high Rh jug and Lh rail. Climb up and left onto the blunt arete, to a airy top.

Stand start to the right of “The Brain”, with the generous undercling flake above your head. Make a set of burly moves up and into the runnel, to a kamikaze top out. Excellent

Antoine Mousette

Start on poor rail then big move up to slot, then to victory jug.

Up featured arete, found on the boulder directly behind “The Brain” stand starting on other small boulder. Watch the fall into the chasm

The arete left of Nexus 6. Starts with low left crimp and RH sloper, straight up and left to victory jugs on top.

Up slab left of pink streak. Trust your feet ...

Up blunt arete slab. When the blankness hits/ use your feet!

Up on good edges and flakes. Great rock.

Climb the easy arete behind “Palm Sunday”, to the right of “Blades of glory”. Stand start in the petite chasm with big feet and hands in cracks.

Backside of Palm Sunday bloc. Stand start with arete of both blocs. Move right once you hit the horn topping out on the right side.

Stand start with high RH flake. Amazing solid ripples lead up the left side of the face.

Stand start in the centre of the slab with contrasting sidepulls. Straight up over the bulge on small holds and powerful foot work. Testpiece for budding slab masters by Shanon the slab Jedi master.

High and delicate up the left side of the tall arete. Stand start with arete RH and LH sidepull. Great compression and lay-back surfing to a high and committing crux.

The Offwidth to the right of “Palm Sunday”. Feels like drinking a 6pack of rums and sprinting down the street..

Sit start this aesthetic, crimpy problem on the lowest rail.

Stand start, RH crimp nothing left hand, straight up to top out.

Stand start with low crimps, moving across crimpy, technical climbing, to a long, cruxy reach.

Stack 2 mats, stand start with high above head RH crimp and waist height LH crimp with ok feet. Some crimpy moves with a blank mantle await you.

Stand start with high obvious crimps and elevate upwards.

Reach/jump to nice ledge then up.

Squat start matched on lowest jug, climbing the arching arete left, along to the highest point of the bloc. Trust those smears! Also used as the down climb from “Mantle Magic” - same Bloc.

Start on full stretch/jump to the double hand sloper bulge on the face left of the Right arete. Burly move left into the weakness and figure your way up from there. Benefits those with a longer reach but not to be missed by the shorter climber!

One meter or two left of "Car Camping". Fun beginner Crimpy V0. Top out and climb down "Car Camping".

Easy up featured wall left of fig tree. Also used to get down of this giant boulder.

Stand start just right of tree with low LH and RH in runnel. Punchy, reachy and classic.

Crimpy and reachy wall a few metres right of fig tree.

Up crimpy face.

Up the left side of the arete.

Up the high slab on positive edges. Arete is in.

Strong stand start- up the twin seams, trending left to the vertical slot. Powerful pulls, to an airy mantle out.

Right of Juicy Apples start. Lh half pad crimp, Rh high on the lowest rail. Straight up on slopes and crimps.

On the same side facing “Post it” (back of the same Boulder as H.A). Sit start the blunt arete trending leftwards.

Sit-start matched to the right on distinct rail, then head up and left to top out. A moderate test piece, and one of the best of the grade in the state.

Left variation of 'Happy Apple'. Sit start then straight up

Better than it looks. Great funky moves up the left side of arete. May have crumbly rock around arete but comes good with brushing.

An intricate slab problem starting on a good left foot, finger pad mono for the left and a slap with some dimples in it for you right. Delicate moves right and then ascend trending left to stay on the face as long as you can. Bailing early is tempting but detracts from the length of slab available to you!

Stand start with choices of either crimps of side pulls on the short arete, opposite the Palm Cove chasm- next to Face Palm.

walk roughly half the way into the crack off the end of the lookout and nestle yourself into your best Egyptian and get chimneying! Good holds abound at the lips on both sides of the top take your time and find them. Care to be taken at the top of this chimney, a fall from the top would not end well.

Great thin slab, first problem of the slab wall down the chasm. Get those feet working.

Excellent low angled thin slab through shallow scoop- starts 3m’s right of “The Cowboy Cha Cha”. More and more footers appear on close inspection

Nice slab on solid edges.

Low angled slab on solid rock on the right side of the corridor - just left of the stars up to the look out.

Jump start to crimps, and then up the jugs.

Stand start in seam, then trend up and leftwards.

Classic line up beautiful boulder. Start as for 'Elemental' and head up and rightwards.

Bouldery start in corner using both boulders to gain comfortable stance on arete, then head up rightside of arete with excellent handholds. A crag classic and a great initiation to highballs.

Jump to good edge, then powerful moves put you standing on the first hold, From here commit to high edge and climb up slab. Very much a highball.

Jump to jug or scramble up tree to get up onto the wall. Head up the extremely high and easy slab on very solid rock. Maybe dirty when out of season. More like soloing a grade 12 climb.

start on arete, mantle on to the slab, then gradually make your way right to the jugs near the top.

10m directly behind you if you're looking at Naughts & Crosses. Sit start right side of the boulder on the lowest sidepull, up the short arete. Very cool.

Up slab in middle of boulder. Quite nice and short. Arrrd with a tricky sit slap move.

Sit start and head out and up on pinches and slopers. Good climbing on average rock. Stick to the established holds to avoid rock breakage.

Up the nice looking runnel. Fun side pull, good feet, then reach up.

Crag classic of the easier problems. Stand start on crimps, then head up and left to arete to topout.

Start just right of Naughts and crosses. Stick to the scoop and right side of arete. Excellent technical and powerful moves.

Start 2m left of “Another Best Day Ever”. Watch the tree on the top out….also use the tree to get down

Nice rail sidepull start to the slab. Be careful using the tree to get down.

Gym problem with the added bonus of possible exploding holds. Start on the lowest sloper jugs, right next to the dead tree, and traverse left up the lip to mantle at the high point. Located on the back side of the Naughts & Crosses boulders.

Sit start with fingery holds and power up to a jug, before a quest from left to right on an array of classy holds. Top out the same as “Dirty Action” on the tallest part of the Boulder. This is a classic for the grade, on the Granite Belt.

Sit start on poor left rail, up on crimps, sidepulls and jugs to the left. One of the best hard lines on the Granite Belt.

Start as for 'The Big Zee', then head right and up on crimps and slopers. It's excellent. Fingery and powerful. Beta video https://vimeo.com/42103468

Ultra hard crimp project starting at right end, finishing up 'Dirty Action'.

Stand just right of the arete matched with crimpy jug and up on good holds. Great rock quality- most definitely a high ball.

Hard bouldery sit start on pinches, traversing right and up into '$53'.

Just like the visionary alpinist himself, Wild, bold and technical, on some of Donnellys best rock.

Great featured corner and arete to navigate across and up.

The “tips crack” around the corner to the right of “Dirty Action”. Stand start with face height locks in the crack and finesse your way upwards and left to a high and athletic mantle out.

Squat start low with sloper jug RH and LH thin crimp. Blast up on good holds.

Stand stand in little chasm with opposite side pulls at face height. Move straight up well-featured wall on crimps, heading towards the vertical runnel.

Same start as “Nevermind”, but move left heading towards the sloper jugs on the left and up.

Stand start with nice crimp LH and either pop RH to high sidepull jug or be tall, easy climbing up the middle of this wall, traversing the flake feature left and up.

Left of “Spiral of Silence”. Stand start matched on sloper jug. Figure out a way to power straight up.

Opposite 'Spiral of Silence'. Stand start with easy flake feature - which takes you up the wall to a vegetated top out.

Straight up the middle of this nice wall. Quite good.

Stick to the left side of the boulder towards the arete.

Up the featured wall on jugs and edges.

Climb the left arete on good holds, Only the mental game can stop you here.

The left hand exit to “Physical”, same start. It’s a day for it!!

Only the Physical can stop you here, Powerful start on crimps a few hand switches and swaps as you move up the dual breaks. Stay left for the harder V6 variety (Skill, as yet unsent), or cut and lunge for the right hand jug at V5, top out easily.

Who knows anything about this bloc? The fourth element to the crystal maze problems. Will the Mystery stop you here?

As yet unsent (as far as we or anyone else knows....)

Stand start in the open book corner, with the vertical crack, using crimps. Move up and right following the crack to a semi-tall top out.

Jsbc

Sit/squat start the steep compression arete. LH low on obvious pinch. RH low on the arete.

To find this boulder walk to the Orchid boulder and head past it downhill for another ~20m. It sits within a corridor at the back of the area.

Stand start with opposing edges in seams, straight up through edges and a mono. Backside wall is out.

Compress the blunt arete, slap to victory. Right of Helmet.

This line sits ~10m right of Helmet.

Sit start in scoop with hold in rooflet and first slot in seam, straight up. The holds are all there but the feet are marginal to say the least.

Top still needs an aggressive wire brushing.

Power up solid edges to easy topout.

Currently unclimbable due to prominent tree.

Sit start project with a big reach. Will be classic.

Hard moves through the seam grants you with a huge jug. Tough on the feet and fingers. Just plain tough.

Brilliant project up a nice line. Follow the crimpy crack from left to right.

Mega roof fridge, start on the arete and crimp following the arete until holds start apearing up the face.
