V7/8 | Condensed Ham
Same start as condensed ham direct. Traverse right and top out on the pointed arête. | 1m | |||
V6 | Green Eggs
If standing in front of Condensed Ham, this boulder is about 7 meters back and to the right. Start matched on a low right facing sidepull and trend slightly leftwards over the buldge to a tricky top out. Although not technically high, the landing slopes severely only to be mitigated by the fact that if you fall from the crux (which is near the top) you'd likely land in a bush that may or may not keep you from rolling down the hill. The first ascentionist threw a pad over the bush to make himself feel better, which may work for you too. See no evil... | 3m | |||
Launceston (Cataract) Gorge The Gorge - Bouldering Shady Side Bouldering Lamp Post 5/6 - Love Wall | |||||

Although the crux is technically over within the first few moves, you may want to at least have a look at the rest lest you find yourself in trouble once you've done the opening. | 3m | |||
Launceston (Cataract) Gorge The Gorge - Bouldering Shady Side Bouldering Lamp Post 9 | |||||
V6 | ★★ Spunk
Sit start. Start on good holds at waist height just left of the arête. Move right around the point then up to the thin seam and up again to a good crimp rail just above.

V7 | ★★★ Spunk Extension
Sit start. Climb Spunk up to the crimp rail and continue up the Arête to the the top. The stand start to this is a 2 bolt climb (Spunky Monkey 27), but the whole line starting from the sit can easily be bouldered with a pad or two. The easiest decent is to downclimb the grade 19 just to the left of the arête. A topout is possible but not recommended. | ||||
Launceston (Cataract) Gorge The Gorge - Bouldering Shady Side Bouldering Lamp Post 10 | |||||
