18 | ★★ Centre Stage | 15 | Waterval Boven | ★★★ Classic | Tue 24th Oct 2023 | ||||
The obvious crack is the most fun!

23 | ★★★ Planetary Alignment | 30m | Waterval Boven | ★★★ Classic | Thu 19th Oct 2023 | ||||
Fell from the last move on my onsight attempt. Classic!

|
|||||||||
13 | ★ Blood in the Dust | 9 | Waterval Boven | ★ Good | Tue 16th May 2006 | ||||
Top is a little weird, you can easily go off route and miss the top anchors if you do a lead climb
|
|||||||||
15 | ★ It's 13 Jim, But Not As We Know It | 6 | Waterval Boven | ★ Good | Tue 16th May 2006 | ||||

Very good bouldery section on top of the ledge just above pitch one , exposure made it harder as it looks,really bad run-out at the Boulder section stay safe

16 | Hey Mamma | 6 | Waterval Boven | Wed 28th Apr 2021 | |||||
Using the tree is not necessary
|
|||||||||
16 | ★ Last Hurrah | 7 | Waterval Boven | ★ Good | Sat 2nd Jul 2016 | ||||
Decent easy route, but has one very cruxy, traverse move which is tricky for shorties.
|
|||||||||
6a 18 | ★★★ Snakeskin Safari Suit | 15m, 10 | Waterval Boven | ★★★ Classic | Sat 2nd Jul 2016 | ||||
Sweet. Funky crack moves and a mantle. Really fun and interesting climbing.
Fully protectable on gear - but I'm not complaining. |
|||||||||
7a+ 25 | ★★ Fat Annie | 6 | Waterval Boven | ★★★ Classic | Sat 2nd Jul 2016 | ||||
Draws up, dog fest.
|
|||||||||
★★ Fat Annie | 6 | Waterval Boven | ★★★ Classic | Sat 2nd Jul 2016 | |||||
All moves - except the first.
|
|||||||||
7a+ 25 | ★★ Fat Annie | 6 | Waterval Boven | ★★★ Classic | Sat 2nd Jul 2016 | ||||
Rope back up, few links and much better top beta.
|
|||||||||
★★ Fat Annie | 6 | Waterval Boven | ★★★ Classic | Sat 2nd Jul 2016 | |||||
Linked in 2, but still no first move. Without the first move its really bouldery and at least a grade harder than the 24s I've climbed. Hopefully a foothold appears at the start before I next tie in.
|
|||||||||
19 | ★★ Slim JIm | 7 | Waterval Boven | Sat 2nd Jul 2016 | |||||
Top rope from Fat Annie for Lu, then ran up it for mileage. Wrecked! Pumpy lie backing.
|
|||||||||
18 | ★★ The Harder You Push, the Harder it Gets | 8 | Waterval Boven | ★★ Very Good | Sun 3rd Jul 2016 | ||||
Typically ungradable chimney moves against a pillar that was noticeable moving, into a somewhat polished and run out corner, finishing at rusty chains. Good adventure. Sat after left leg went to sleep from knee scuffing.
|
|||||||||
16 | ★ Cenotaph Corner | 9 | Waterval Boven | ★★★ Classic | Sun 3rd Jul 2016 | ||||
Would be a classic 13 corner at Frog. Wierd climbing a route like this with bolts.
|
|||||||||
15 | Teacher's Pet | 8 | Waterval Boven | Average | Sun 3rd Jul 2016 | ||||
Forgettable. Steep bulge where you crank on a death block straight in front of your face.
|
|||||||||
7a+ 25 | ★★★ Task Saturated | 8 | Waterval Boven | ★★★ Classic | Sun 3rd Jul 2016 | ||||
Draws up, few moves.

★★★ Task Saturated | 8 | Waterval Boven | ★★★ Classic | Sun 3rd Jul 2016 | |||||
Having a play. Every move except the last. Something of a theme at this grade in SA. Hard.
|
|||||||||
19 | ★ Once in a Blue Moon | 11 | Waterval Boven | ★ Good | Sun 11th Aug 2019 | ||||
Very physical up the off-width, thin and scary on the face at the top.
|
|||||||||
18 | ★ Last Supper | 25m, 13 | Waterval Boven | Don't Bother | Sun 11th Aug 2019 | ||||
Bit of a crappy route. Lots of trees, grass, and sticks to contend with.
|
|||||||||
18 | ★★★ Jenga | 25m, 12 | Waterval Boven | ★★★ Mega Classic | Sun 11th Aug 2019 | ||||
Absolutely stunning route! Fell just before the anchors. Could have flashed it if I was fresh.
|
|||||||||
20 | ★★★ TOUCHING THE VOID | 9 | Waterval Boven | ★★★ Classic | Sat 10th Aug 2019 | ||||
Very cool moves.
|

|||||||||
17 | ★ Zupta Sandwich Bar | Waterval Boven | Average | Fri 9th Aug 2019 | |||||
Really scary traverse up the nasty crumbling hollow flake. Did not enjoy.
|
|||||||||
17 | ★ Changeling | Waterval Boven | Fri 9th Aug 2019 | ||||||
Fairly mundane route. Quite balancy at the top.
|
|||||||||
18 | ★★★ Snakeskin Safari Suit | 15m, 10 | Waterval Boven | ★★★ Mega Classic | Thu 27th Aug 2020 | ||||
Absolutely beautiful route! Really cool moves, not too challenging for the grade. Hit a mental block below the second last bolt and chickened out. Really keen to send on my next visit to the area!
|
|||||||||
18 | ★ Variation to Wood Pile Crack | 9 | Waterval Boven | ★★ Very Good | Thu 27th Aug 2020 | ||||
An awesome struggle! If you're willing to battle through a dirty, grassy bottom half of the route with trees in the way, the hand crack in the upper section will reward you with a couple awesome moves.
Underrated by guidebooks and the local climbing community! |
|||||||||
17 | ★★ Catcher in The Rye | 10 | Waterval Boven | ★★★ Classic | Fri 28th Aug 2020 | ||||
Maybe a bit hard for the grade. Really nice moves up the crack! Enjoyable!
|
|||||||||
20 | ★★★ Touching the Void | 9 | Waterval Boven | ★★★ Classic | Fri 28th Aug 2020 | ||||
Finally sent it! Magnificent route! The left-side ending seemed a lot easier apart from being a bit slopy at the anchors
|
|||||||||
16 | ★★ Me Tarzan, You Jane | 9 | Waterval Boven | ★ Good | Sun 2nd May 2021 | ||||
The start is a bit convoluted, but a fun route anyway

17 | ★★ Gone in 60 Seconds - with Christopher Harris | Waterval Boven | ★★ Very Good | Sat 29th May 2021 | |||||
Great moves but dirty holds.

|||||||||
17 | ★★ Phoebe's Behind (SCRATCHER IN THE RYE PROJECT) - with Christopher Harris | 8 | Waterval Boven | ★★★ Classic | Sun 30th May 2021 | ||||
Initial layback in the crack is tricky. Easy going on the face at the top.
|
|||||||||
17 | ★★ Naughty Corner | 8 | Waterval Boven | ★★★ Classic | Sun 30th May 2021 | ||||
The route guide doesn't lie about the best jugs in Boven!

20 | ★★ Biogalactic Gobbleblaster - with Dan millar | 20m, 8 | Waterval Boven | Wed 9th Aug 2023 | |||||
The tree was aid
|
|||||||||
17 | ★ Zellweger Variation | 9 | Waterval Boven | Average | Wed 23rd Dec 2020 | ||||
One very powerful move that makes it difficult, especially for someone with less upper body strength. Can be helped by getting the perfect feet positioning
|
|||||||||
