Routes in Gauteng for selected grade

The leftmost chimney. Climb the recess and do a chimney move to gain the small overhang near the top. Careful of the loose block at top.

The crack system on the left wall of the chimney provides the handholds for this climb. Climb up using the widely spaced holds. The face on the left round the corner is not part of the route.

Climb the prominent triangular overhang directly above Butterfly.

This climb ascends he attractive scooped face to the left of Dooms Face. It provides exposed and delicate climbing. The name of the climb is associated with the swastikas painted on the face. Climb easily to the ledge below the face, above bushes. Traverse right above the overhang and up to small overhanging open book. Traverse to the left and on to the top.

Climb up to the small triangular ledge just right of the ledge on Asutha Ridge. Climb directly up to the top using an optional mantleshelf.

Go up the face to the right of the break used by THUGGERY. Pull into the base of the short corner, and climb to the lower-offs on the left, under the tree.

Start at the base of a jam crack 4m right of recess. Climb steeply past the funnel feature, tending slightly right towards the top.

Climb the crack system directly above the tree at the base of BLACK JACK GULLY. Climb up past some white streaks to an undercling rail. Then move left onto further cracks and ascend (passing a tree on the right) to the top.

Sit start use all the jugs and get to the top

Starts up some steep jug hauling before moving diagonally left up a break towards the chains.

Climbs the left facing corner with 1m roof high up. Not as hard as it looks.

Climbs the right hand side of the scoop, following a crack system all the way to the top of the crag. Cool line with some nice exposure at the top.

Interesting start, eases up after 2nd bolt.

The next two climbs can be run together as a 31m outing. A 60m rope will allow an average-weight climber to get down on rope stretch. Tie a knot in the end of the rope just in case!

Lower tier, starting at a shield-shaped bulge just left of the middle of the main face. Climb up and over the bulge into a small recess and easier climbing. Scramble to anchors.

Start at the sentry box and traverse right across the wall, to exit up the roof-capped corner..

Start as for CFD, on the block. Traverse left and up the wall to curve back right to the anchors.

Move up on large holds as for the main climb. Continue up and traverse left into the groove on good holds.

An alternative start which takes the off-balance groove/crack on the left of the first bolt.

Crux is at the start, great warm up climb.

1. 25m 15 (8D, A) Follow the easiest line that leads a slight bit to the right and to the start of a vertical wall. Follow easily a little bit to your left. (The wind and water is loud, communicate clearly)

2. 15m 13 (4D, A) Step to the right and climb up the corner (crux) for a few easy moves. Just below the slab, pick a line that will get you traversing a little bit to the right and the chains. (The wind and water is loud, communicate clearly)

3. 25m 14 (6D, A) Climb up to the first hanger and then follow a natural line of “least resistance” angling up to your right. When looking up this line, you will see a little green tree against the ski-line. To the right and behind/past this tree is two clean ledges above each other where the route tops out. (it is hard to hear your second from here) Following the line of “least resistance”, look far ahead to find the hangers hidden in the grass at each location where you will need to “climb”. Just past/below the tree you were aiming for, you will turn to your left and out of the “line of least resistance”. (you should see the hangers against the largest rocks in the area).
