15 | ★ The Arrow and the Song
Start just left of Karinya, climb left a bit then up. FA: Niall Doherty & Warwick Williams, 2010 | 26m, 9 | Blue Mountains | ||
15 | ★★ The Carthaginian
Corner 2m left of SSCC1. Up corner through trees and continue up the corner behind the block above. 60m rope is fine for abseiling and lowering. FA: J.Ewbank & J.Worrall, 1966 | 33m | Blue Mountains | ||
15 | ★★ Beautiful Possibilities
A beautiful route. Take care at the start. Start as for Jason. Tricky moves up and L onto the front of the nose, then follow the nose to the top - veering L quite close to Pedro at half height. The pro is mainly small wires - take plenty and make sure you are proficient at placing them. FA: Chris Baxter & Mike Stone, 1975 | 30m | Arapiles | ||
15 | ★★ Hope
Finger crack 2m left of Chastity. One hard move. Lower off shared chains on top. FA: E.Saxby, B.Ryan & G.Boyd, 1966 | 15m | Blue Mountains | ||

Start: A further 10m up the gully. Great! Five FH's up corner-like feature. Shares an anchor with TMMM. FA: Gareth Llewellin, M Smith & ross ferguson, 2004 | 15m, 4 | Mt Tibrogargan | ||
15 | ★ Big Dreams
Up beside the cave (on its left) as for W, hand traverse across the ridge. Left foot high step onto the lintel to get that 2nd bolt and up you go. FA: Sue Young, 2000 | 15m | Nowra | ||
15 | ★★ Devil's Wart
Simply brilliant middle grade climbing. Easily the best 15 at the cliff. Start at the obvious corner behind the large tree. Up this on brilliant holds and jams to a rest at the cave. Gulp hard, plug in yet more bombproof gear and blast out of the cave to some very airy positions. Wobble and bridge up the final corner to an easy top out. Chains can be found at the tree. There is some hollow rock on this climb, but you don't need to use any of it. FA: Ross Allen & Ian Cameron, 1970 | 27m | Frog Buttress | ||
15 | ★ Bottle Stopper | 18m, 4 | Kangaroo Point | ||
15 | ★★ Necrophilliac

15 | ★★ Andrew's Bulge
Climb is marked with a faded AB. Just right of the crack. Rebolted 2009. 3 ring bolts with lower off. A Sydney classic FA: Peter Faill | 8m, 3 | Bangor West | ||

A stunning line on glorious water-washed rock. Protection is excellent despite how it may look, and huge camming devices are not essential. Take two ropes if doing the abseil. Start below the large smooth corner at the right end of the Organ Pipes.
FA: Peter Jackson & Bob Bull, 1965 | 50m, 2 | Arapiles | ||
15 | ★ Bad Company
A classy little climb up the corner past a large tree at 2m. Fantastic protection and loads of climbing variety make this an absolute winner. Rappel down from DBB directly above the route. FA: Nic Taylor & John Hattink, 1977 | 20m | Frog Buttress | ||
15 | ★★★ Tombstone Wall
Up past difficult mantle then up right to break. Traverse right to edge of arete then up to top passing several carrots on the way. Belay just below top out on stainless carrots. Belay leader from top belay to rap chains for Angular Crack. Re-bolted with stainless glue in carrots in 2016. Direct start is 24. Start: Thin crack 6m left of 'The Bells of Rhymney', FA: J Ewbank & J Davis | 30m, 3 | Blue Mountains | ||
15 | ★ Miss Kandy Kane
The line going directly up the R arête of the scoop past five RBs to finish at rap rings. Nice juggy going to the top of the scoop, then open, balancy climbing to the station. Lower off. FA: Lee Cujes & Erik Smits, 1999 | 20m, 5 | Brooyar | ||
15 | ★★ Coco Pops

FA: Daryl Carr, Jerry Grandage & Ann Pauligk, 1966 | 96m, 4 | Arapiles | ||
15 | ★ Iron Butterfly
A great warm up climb. Climb the left wall with great hands and pro in the back of the off-width to 10m. Then at roof go out and up using left wall again. Good stance on top of pillar, more good gear and another off-width section to the top of this next section. Use a tree not far back from the top of the route. FA: Rick White & Ron Collett | 28m | Frog Buttress | ||
15 | ★ Pitang Pitang
Right of IOEP. Shared start with Ole Biscuit Barrel, then follow the bolts left to the low anchors. FA: G. Short & P. Mort, 1994 | 12m, 6 | Blue Mountains | ||
15 | ★ Taylor Made
Jug haul up past rings. Start: right side of buttress 30m left of 'Cenotaph Corner'. Now has loweroffs. FA: Julian Anderson, 2000 | 6m, 2 | Berowra | ||

V0 | ★ Bangers
Straight up knobs just left of the tree branch on top. FA: Tim O'Neill | 3m | The Balkans | ||
15 | ★ Mechanical Prune
Quite good. Varied techniques are required to ascend this fine corner. Up the groove past a tree, then to an awkward constriction. Thrutch up this like a madman, or step onto the R face and skip the difficulties. FA: Rick White & Chris Meadows | 18m | Frog Buttress | ||
15 | ★★ Siamese Crack
The middle of the three prominent cracks on the wall is a daunting layback if your jamming technique is lacking. FA: Peter Jackson & Ted Batty, 1965 | 25m | Arapiles | ||
15 | ★★ Alpine
Follow the ring bolts up to the prow up high. Up through the overlaps with a bit of high stepping action, to an almost vertical finish. FA: Simon Vaughan, 2010 | 20m, 9 | Mount Alexandra | ||
V0 | ★ Frontrow
Up over bulge on big holds. FA: Rob Saunders | 3m | The Balkans | ||

15 | ★★ Agent Orange
Conjures up an image of Chris Baxter clutching a bush and screaming as he hurtles down "Vanoise". The little flake just right of the initial corner has also been climbed at 19. Start: At small, right-facing corner 3 metres right of "Vanoise". Rap chains. FA: Chris Baxter & Paul Daniels, 1981 | 25m | Arapiles | ||
15 | ★ Maiden China
Imposing ringbolted wide crack on left end of 'Tribute Wall'. Luckily there is an abundance of jugs on either side of the crack to make it a nice stemming problem. Start on left side of pit. Step right to RB on right side of crack, then mantle onto ledge. 'Problematic' move up wide crack gains jugs on right wall, then easier (put steep!) climbing to top. 5 RBs and lower-off. FA: Neil Monteith & Kathy Dicker, 2008 | 13m, 5 | Hollow Mountain (N & NE side of Mt. Stapylton) | ||
15 | ★ Left-hand Lichen
Left line of rings up the lichen covered slab. | 22m | Nowra | ||
15 | ★ Interstellar Journey
Start 2m L of 'Gravitational Equilibrium'. Marked "IJ". Follow the crackline, zig-zaging a bit, clipping 4 RBs to the DBB. Rebolted 2014. FA: Heinz Buscher, 2010 | 20m, 4 | Mt Ngungun | ||
15 | ★★ The Gruffalo
Right of Snooze. Pull over two bulges and onto the crack and slab. Romp up the nice looking orange rock to the anchors shared with Snooze. The route starts just left of the bush 2m up, watch the tree when lowering!! FA: Matt Tranter, 13 Aug 2017 | 24m, 9 | Mount Alexandra | ||
15 | ★ Rest Area Ahead
A one move special, and a soft touch at the grade. Start at the obvious crack in the corner R of Humility. Up this with excellent protection to a ledge. Bumble easily to the top as for PA. Bolted belay anchor. FA: Simon Uren, 1981 | 10m | Frog Buttress | ||
15 | ★ Miss Manners
Start up slabby crack clipping UB before ledge. Lean out clipping second UB, then juggy climbing up the black featured wall past two more UBs before moving L to join MKK at its final bolt. Lower off as for MKK. FA: Sam Cujes, 2009 | 20m, 5 | Brooyar | ||
15 | ★ Gary's Groove
1 metre right of 'Summer Breeze', 5 bolts with a balancy start up to DBB. Crack at the top takes a cam around Camalot #2 size if you'd like to avoid the very slightly runout finish. Make sure to extend anchor if toproping. | 15m, 5 | Camels Hump | ||
15 | ★★★ Icehouse
Start: Start 2m L of Visions Of A Transmitter below the dead tree at 5m. A superb climb up an exposed face crack which is easier than it looks. Climb the juggy face for 35m until the final crack section makes things a little tricky. Belay off chains. The protection is good, but because the rock is a bit weak, be sure to place a lot and make sure it's bomber. You can rap off with one 80m rope, otherwise join two ropes, or scramble another 5 meters to the summit and walk off. FA: Tony Dignan & Steve Bell, 1975 | 40m | Mt Ngungun | ||
15 | ★ Sideline Jack
Start 10m R of RS at the right side of roofs. 6 Ubolts to lower off. | 14m, 6 | Alfords Point | ||
15 | ★★ The Pharaoh
The offwidth 8m L of Eternity with an undercut start. Thankfully it doesn't climb like an offwidth! Best to finish after 18m by stepping L to the SSCC3 rap anchor. FA: J.Ewbank & K.Carter, 1965 | 33m | Blue Mountains | ||
15 | ★★ Noodle
The obvious line up the scoops immediately above the trad grade 10 corner at path level. 12m as a sport route from the scramble onto block, about 20m from path level including easy corner (no bolts till ledge). Plenty of bolts on headwall and good climbing. FA: G.Short & P.Mort, 1998 | 12m | Blue Mountains | ||
15 | ★★ Crack of Dawn
2m left of E. Up the thrutchy bum crack, then either up the well protected headwall (BR), or pleasantly left up groove to top (BR on left protects top out). Double RB belay. Protection: Cams: BD #.4, #.5, #.75 x 2, #1, #2, 1 carrot Anchors: ring bolts with shackles FA: Northern Beaches Cliff Training Team, 1975 | 20m | Barrenjoey | ||
15 | ★ Gecko
3m right of LL. Up through the cave and follow cracks/ledges FA: John Hawkins-Salt, 1994 | 16m, 4 | Nowra | ||
V0 | ★★ Sydney Highrise
Sit start on the big juggy hole and climb straight up the wall on a series of jugs to a tricky top out. Top out is not too bad if you suss out the top holds before embarking (try not to get caught on the tree when topping out). | 5m | Hollow Mountain (N & NE side of Mt. Stapylton) | ||
15 | ★ MD
Start pretty much at 'Cold Fusion' but trend R straight away to high first bolt before ledge. Climbs straight up from here, with a nice crack near the top. Originally a trad route with dodgy pro, now retrobolted into a fun sport climb through some mindblowing rock. 8 RBs, top out, abseiling rings 7-9 are for top anchor. | 30m, 8 | Brooyar | ||
15 | ★ My Grandmother's Dinky
Start: 3m left of Frolic. DRBB set back and out of sight. | 20m, 5 | Blue Mountains | ||
15 | ★ Bacon
Right arête starting off ledge right of Maleficent. Starts at double ring belay bolts. Passes thru a DBB halfway so can be treated as single pitch or a two pitch multi for those learning the ropes. FA: F Pircher & K Short, 2015 | 25m, 2, 9 | Blue Mountains | ||
15 | ★ Shabby Doll
Up past obvious hole in the wall. Originally done on gear, now bolted with carrots (large heads). FA: M.Colyvan & G.Hill, 1982 | 16m, 4 | Blue Mountains | ||
15 | ★ Hangover
Tough start then up the juggy steep wall on incut ironstone holds/flakes. Slight incline from the vertical in the mid-half of the climb. 3 rings to double ring belay or up to the top and walk off. Maint: 2012 MAR - all new ring bolts. | 9m, 4 | Mount Keira | ||
15 | ★ Lords Prayer
Worth its grade for the start and some nice bridging moves up the corner. Start: Up the left hand corner to the right of 'Shewoodenduit'. | 17m | Morialta | ||
15 | ★★ Shedidit
Lace the crack up with cams and nuts. Has a nice move just before topping out. Start: Climb the vertical crack just right of bung wall. FA: David Moriarty, Stuart Fishwick & Christine Shedley, 1968 | 13m | Morialta | ||
15 | ★ David Mac
Start 1m L of 'Cornflake Crack'. Marked "DM". Named after a climber killed on Crookneck. Climb up slinging drill hole, then follow line of 3 RBs to DBB. Originally led as a trad route but has been retrobolted. FA: Heath Black & Mark Bennett, 1995 | 18m, 3 | Kangaroo Point | ||

15 R | ★ Wind in the Willows
Start 2m R of 'Slippery When Wet', 4m R of 'Tiger's Eye'. Good climbing but beware the run out to the 2nd bolt = ground fall territory from the 2nd bolt. 4 RBs to DBB or clip the carrot and top out for full value. Rebolted in 2020 with RBs & equipped with lower-offs. FFA: Darrin Carter & Darren Watter, 1993 | 18m, 4 | Kangaroo Point | ||
15 | ★ Alien Encounter
Start 3m L of 'Horse Head Nebula'. Marked "AE". Follow the bolts to the DBB. High first bolt, but easy climbing up to that point. Rebolted 2014. FA: Heinz Buscher, 2010 | 18m, 4 | Mt Ngungun | ||
15 | ★ Tea for 2
Now fully bolted with rings. FA: Herb Brandmeier & Joan Vickers, 1998 | 35m, 10 | Brooyar | ||

15 | ★ Parents in Pain

15 | ★★★ Kaiser - Resignation
Classic. Start up first two pitches of Kaiser, finish up top two pitches of Resignation (15,13, 15,12). | 99m, 4 | Arapiles | ||
15 | ★ Orange Crush
The crack. Start: 3.5m right of CC. FA: Tod Truscott & Oscar Poll, 1990 | 10m | Arapiles | ||
15 | ★ More Smart More Safe
This climb starts roughly where the track meets the wall, marked "MSMS" A nice route that follows a line of 5 FHs to a shared DBB. Anchor is shared with After Dinner Delight. Stick clipping the first bolt will protect the low crux. FA: Steve Kloske, 2014 | 12m, 5 | Mt Tibrogargan | ||

15 | ★★ Me And My Dog
Start at the flat clearing R of the freestanding boulder. The most popular climb at 'Tinbeerwah'. Hardest move is getting off the ground. 11 BRs and top out. If the high first bolt concerns you there is a good small to medium wire placement at the right of the small rooflet to help to protect the start. Rap/belay using rings 17 or 18. FA: Chester & Rod Keep, 1995 | 45m, 11 | Mt Tinbeerwah | ||
15 | ★ Aerobics with Alan
Great warm up route, or beginner route. Bulge at midway may test some climbers. | 20m, 6 | Mountain Quarry | ||

15 | ★ Spoonbender
The staircase with a hard first step. Newbies beware between the third and fourth and tap the rock above the fourth, it is hollow and sounds it. Start: Around the arete from FF5. FA: D.Geraghty & S.Squires, 1996 | 12m, 7 | Blue Mountains | ||

An olden day classic - historical! Start: 20m right of FDds on smaller block down and right of the monster?
Interesting historical note: the monster block that forms the first pitch used to be closer to the wall and higher up, but sometime in the 1970s it slid a couple of metres during a torrential rain storm. Many guidebook descriptions haven't been updated since the FA, causing confusion for many repeat ascentionists. FA: R.kippax & D.Roots, 1960 | 95m, 3 | Blue Mountains | ||
15 | ★★ Cordon Bleu
A wonderful introduction to hand jams. Start: At the left end of the wall there are two distinctive cracks. Start below the left-most one. | 25m | Freycinet National Park | ||

Delightful moves up wall and thin bottomless crack 2 metres left of "The Priest" FA: Peter Martin & K. Deacon, 1979 | 16m | Arapiles | ||
15 | ★★ Ejaculation
Good, varied climbing. Take some large hexes for the second pitch as the cams tend to walk their way open in a couple of spots. Start at the thin crack on the right wall of the gully.
FA: Phillip Stranger & Chris Dewhirst., 1967 | 50m, 2 | Arapiles | ||
15 | ★ The God Delusion
Up middle of the main slab. Take long slings for lower-off | 8m, 5 | Earlwood | ||
5.7 | ★ Stage Right
The right set of bolts up this face. If climbed directly over the bolts, goes about 5.7 -- but can be climbed at about 5.5 by drifting a bit off line either right or left into larger holds. This now (fall 2012) has a chunk of rock at the bottom labelling it as "Stage Right 5.8 S". | 13m, 4 | Calabogie | ||
15 | ★ The Chimney

15 | ★ Psicotico
Just around the corner on the right in the Nitro Wall approach Gully. Start just right of the little ground bush. Reach up high for the right hand jug and lay back.
