Step right at the small ledge then up the thin seam. Bolts and gear to DBB.

Needs a big cam for the belay down low. Up to the jug, delicately left to the flake then up. Bolts and gear to DBB.

A bouldery start leads to a clean flared crack. Good sustained climbing.

Belay below the roof on natural gear. Up to the roof then traverse left to a good stance. Straight up the rounded layback flake to a jug. Tricky finish up the face above.

Mega-line up the middle of the wall. Start on the lower ledge and climb a short crack to a bolt that protects a mantle onto a small ledge. Traverse right along the dyke to a good stance at the arrowhead. Blast up the wall past a bolt (crux) towards the obvious layback crack. Sustained climbing up this to a bit of a stance and some gear. Finish straight up.

Obvious incut flake/crack just left of CN.

Crack and face climbing. Gear and a couple of bolts. Take hangers.

Glory laybacking up the steep flake/crack. Gear and 3 bolts. Finish at the lower-offs.

Follow the track past the intail climbs, just before the access to the top there is a ring bolted sport route next to it. Follow the cresent moon crack to the top and then head left and top out for the route. Top access for ring bolts or a sport 19 to the right for a warm up to get to the ring bolts. Have not bolted the route itself yet.

Start at the base of the tallest slab and top out just next to the Bib Track. This is the only route on the slab, which is located behind the giant overhanging boulder. Nice face climbing. 2 p-bolt anchor.

A place you go to practice being the best person you can be. Start about 35 metres up from the end of the ramp on top of two small blocks. 7BR to DBB. Steeper than it looks but there are intermittent good holds and edges. Climb gingerly up right to FB then straight up on small edges and high steps with much friction work. Delicate move over the horizontal break, particularly if your heart is pumping. Steep fractioning up the final runnel. M. Rosser, J. Truscott 27 Dec 07

This route is a real ball tearer. Start at the base of the overhung crack just up from the end of the ramp. 6BR to DBB. Climb strongly up placing a1½ and then a 2½ Friend in the crack. Climb further up the crack again into the runnel with strong moves to clip the FB in the vertical runnel. Rock into the runnel with string moves. Surprisingly good friction in the runnel to gain the third bolt. Rising right traverse across the slab and wall above with really pleasant friction work. M. Rosser 27 Dec 07

A dance of seduction and rejection. 5BR to DBB.

(1) 7m 15. Start at the very end of the ramp. Hand and foot traverse right and surmount the large flake to belay on a BR and large Friends. Ignore the bolt below which is for the ground up ascent to come.

(2) 20m 19. Delicately up, smearing most of the way. M. Rosser, J. Truscott 28 Dec 07

Crack

Another crack

Start as for JDPR and head up the RHS side of the bowl.

The series of pockets to the left of NPFGM.

It’s physical; you know that you have been climbing and it goes up with a well defined crux. It has all the elements of a great climb in a fantastic wilderness setting

(1) 35m 23. Start at the base of the vertical flake at the LHE of the slanting cave opposite the fireplace. Traverse right after the 3rd BR and delicately up to gain the powerful under cling just above the 5th BR; from where you reach up high to the right to gain a positive edge. 7BR and 2-3 larger wires to BB and 3½ Friend.

(2) 25m 15. Continue up with 3BR to belay on blocks.

(3)40m 23/24. To be continued up the North Summit.

The left, back and right sides of the boulder

This climb is easy to find as it has the distinctive grey Fixe hangers and no nuts (bolts are glued in). Start at the lowest point of the slab. Up past 3 bolts, place two bomber nuts (#2 and #5 Wallnuts) just above each other, then past 3 more bolts to the top. Ross Weiter, Ruth Murdie, Apr ’11

The chimney on the S side of the S boulder, adjacent to the walking track. No gear. Ross Weiter (solo), Apr ‘11

Ten metres L of HH. Crank the short hand jam crack to Y-junction 3 m above deck (crux), then take the R option to gain ramp. Up ramp easily to top of block, then tenuously up the bridging corner to gain the top. # 4 Camalot is essential for the top moves. Ross Weiter, Apr ’11|

Up the short unprotected chimney, then slab, then enter the bottomless “jaws”. Place #2 and #5 Camalots here and a #6 Camalot higher up. A bit grunty. Ross Weiter, Peter Thomas, Apr ‘14

This ugly-looking chimney is full of features and fully bolted. It offers many unusual moves not found in face climbing, so don’t let appearances put you off! Just when you think that it is over, there is the slab finish. 6 EFH, trad belay. Ross Weiter, Dena Rao, Dec ’11

Stick your hand into the hole half way up to see who is home? This route is fully independent of LC, do not use the crack at start. The low traverse right is the crux, but the mantle at the end is interesting also. 5 EFH and trad belay. Ross Weiter, Dena Rao, Dec’11

Up the impressive R-facing corner/crack. Excellent trad gear. Ross Weiter, Ruth Murdie, Apr ’11

Start from the pass between N and S boulders. Follow the wide crack gully up the S side of the S boulder. Pleasant and easy, it can be led on trad gear. Ross Weiter (solo), Apr’ 11

On the W face of the N boulder. Take the R trending crack to ledge, then the first L trending crack to top. Features some large moves. Ross Weiter, Ruth Murdie, Apr ‘11

The somewhat strenuous first crack with a grainy start, yet the best of the three. Bring #4 and #5 Camalots. Ross Weiter, Peter Thomas, Apr 2014.

The broken crack in the middle of the wall. Peter Thomas, Ross Weiter, Apr 2014.

The right crack. Trend R for 4m, then pull up to jugs and straight up to top. Ross Weiter, Peter Thomas, Apr 2014.

Up L side of slab 6m L of Slabulus past 2 FH to ledge left of massive block. Clip FH, pull left then up L face past FH, then right along crack to fifth FH. 5FH all up, #1 Camalot is optional. The trad belay is fiddly so set it before starting. Ross Weiter, Peter Thomas, Apr 2014.

Climb the L edge of the white streak 5m L of Cornerius. The only gear is #2 and #3 Camalots half way up, crux is 3m above them. Ross Weiter, Peter Thomas, Apr 2014.

Up the L‐facing corner at R end of slab. Peter Thomas, Ross Weiter, Apr 2014.

Start 5m above Knobulus so belayer can see your efforts as you tackle the knobbly wall by the crack for 5m. Finish as for K. #4 Camalot is essential for the top. Ross Weiter, Peter Thomas, Apr 2014.

Use cobblestone knobs to start up the steep face but escape to the right and onto the slabby wall. Directly up to overlap, then high step to top. #4 Camalot is essential for the top. Ross Weiter, Peter Thomas, Apr 2014.

The left (upper) side of the right‐rising pink streak. Crux is the overhanging corner 5m up. Peter Thomas, Ross Weiter, Apr 2014.

The first climb done here. Follows the right (lower) side of the pink streak of rock. Great gear and huge holds. Ross Weiter, Peter Thomas, Apr 2014.
