Started late with one head torch with the intention of climbing in the dark and expecting lights projecting onto the rock. No lights tonight. Was too dark to continue on the 3rd pitch. Poor Jess would have been seconding essentially blindfolded. Good fun climb with some thought provoking sections. Will return with 2 headtorches for that night time exposure

Spectacularly messed up that first pitch (18) and lost the onsite. Though, made my poor partner walk back down after and belay me again. No issues the 2nd time. Some great technical slabbyness

	21 23	★★ Bramble Scramble - with jack, elsie	Sport 15m	Castle Hill	★★ Very Good	Glen Hayford	Fri 11th Feb 2022
Cool route! Definitely worth venturing up further from Alias to do it.
	23	★★ Maid in France - with Jaclyn	Sport 17m	Castle Hill		Kallin Willis	Mon 17th Oct 2022
Part of the crack was wet so had to use the left alternative for a bit, felt like a frog climb with some stemming and some laybacks here and there. Bit of a spicy top section too. Definitely recommend!

	21 22	★★ Saint and Sinner	Sport 120m, 12	Castle Hill	★★ Very Good	Gareth Llewellin	Sun 10th Jul 2011
the rock quality is exciting!
	21 22	★★ Saint and Sinner - with Tom	Sport 120m, 12	Castle Hill		Elias	Wed 2nd Aug 2017
Starts from the track with two carrot bolts in the beginning and veers to the right for a bit. There were 14 rusty (not completely trustworthy) more bolts before the rusty chain anchor. The rock isn't the best, but there was nothing coming off other than a few crumbs. I'd say it's a sandbag, it felt harder. Nevertheless, I enjoyed the pitch, it was demanding and sustaind climbing on crimps. We've only done the first pitch, because Tom didn't have any skin left on his fingers after a few days of bouldering before..
	V3	★★ 10m Traverse	Boulder 3m	Castle Hill	★★ Very Good	Luen Warneke	Wed 5th Sep 2018
A good traverse.

Stand start. Is the stand start a V3?
	22	★ Gaston Brothers - with Rachael	Sport 8m, 6	Castle Hill	Average	zac	Wed 1st Sep 2021
Very obviously Chipped.
	22	★ Gaston Brothers - with Jaclyn	Sport 8m, 6	Castle Hill	★★ Very Good	Kallin Willis	Mon 17th Oct 2022
Crimpy start but flows well, I'd give it a double star
	21	★ Coming of Age	Sport 15m	Castle Hill	★ Good	benjamin james eichler	Fri 5th Oct 2007
Fun thin moves. I agree reachy! The rock seams solider on this one.
	V2	★★ Klingon Death Rays	Boulder 10m	Castle Hill		Elias	Sat 29th Jul 2017
Nice feature! The traverse is also possible without the undercling. Very crimpy and technical this way and worth a try!
	V2	★★ Klingon Death Rays - with Jodie Rummer	Boulder 10m	Castle Hill	★★ Very Good	Luen Warneke	Tue 28th Aug 2018
The dust makes it slippery but the traverse is very satisfying.

	V2	Brians corner - with Jodie Rummer	Boulder 3m	Castle Hill		Luen Warneke	Wed 6th Jun 2018

First climb in Townsville. Little bit of fluffing around trying to find the crag. Could use a bit more traffic. The climb was nice, had some interesting movement

Nice climb! It's all bolted with more or less rusty bolts. 10 draws are enough, also for the 3rd pitch (unless I've missed a bolt)
	19	★ Good In Tension - with Dave Ware	Sport 20m, 5	Castle Hill	★ Good	Matt Brooks	Wed 7th Mar 2018
Solid start but quite fun.

What a classic climb! I've been wanting to do this for a while now.
	V1	Fished	Boulder 2m	Castle Hill		Luen Warneke	Wed 5th Sep 2018
FA. Sit start, sitting on lone rock; right hand on pinch and right foot on the rock in front. Lay back and swing to left intermediate crimp, then bump up to edge. From there, I work my way up the layback to a reachy move, slapping the sloper at the top, shift feet and top out.
	19	★ Heiroglyphics - with Kate Pearce	Sport 11m, 5	Castle Hill	★★ Very Good	Luen Warneke	Sat 15th Sep 2018

Location, location! i've looked at this prow for many trips to TSV. finally got a chance to get there in an afternoon of shade with a climbing partner. Pitch 3 is a BANGER!
