Grade Route

Decent blocky route with tons of gear and a safe top-out. Belay from the pebbly river bank and climb left of the arete.

Fun sustained climb with crux over the small roof (LHS variant is slightly harder)

Top climb and best route I've seen at this crag. Start with your feet just above the water and pull through the first roof on the RHS before crossing to the smaller roof on the LHS and finishing up the nose. We set up a toppy with trad gear.

Great crimpy climb with a fun roof at the bottom (make sure you start from right down at the river to get the full experience). Finish up on the small face right of Pure Class.

Climb the arete left of Naughty not in Trouble (starting from the same ledge on the river). Really interesting climbing and a bit different to everything else on this crag.

FA: Elsa Burnell, 17 Nov 2019

Easy corner, perfect for beginners or your first crack at abseiling down for access. Good shelf for standing right at river level. Have to fight through a bit of veg.

Climb the lovely face right of Naughty not in Trouble. If you're using the same anchor watch out for the sideways rope drag.

FA: Elsa Burnell, 17 Nov 2019

Nice enough climb, last move is the crux, everything else is easy sailing.

FA: Elsa Burnell, 27 Oct 2019

Nice route with easy start and crux on the quartz horizontal about halfway up.

FA: Jared Hoberg, 27 Oct 2019

Awesome climb with strong roof at the bottom being the crux. Relatively cruise finish up the little corner. NOTE: This climb is located between A Donde Mas and Show us Your Side Pull (couldn't work out how to change the order)
