Node
East of Platteklip

This is a tiny crag on the top band of cliffs about 150m to the left (East) of Platteklip gorge. Fortunately what good rock there is in the vicinity has a steep arete and face about 35m high. It is probably best to get a visual on the crag from the opposite (Western) side of the gorge then walk back across. A trail leads near the cliff edge and it is easy to set up an abseil point near the top of the routes.

Platypus Area
25 The Reckoning

Starts up the left side of the sharp fin (directly under the steep prow above) to a narrow ledge. Pull through the roof and move slightly right to a steep layback and then continue directly up the steep arete to the top. At the crux keep an eye out for a key two-finger pocket that is not immediately obvious. Consensus grading needed - probably 24 with the crux beta.

18 Owl Music

Climbs the face to the right of 'The Reckoning'. Start easily up to a layback flake system and then take a central line up the face with a short, wide vertical crack just before the top.
