The long and broken low wall in the North East separating the quarry from the ocean. Bouldering. Routes listed Left to Right (i.e. North to South).

Tend left from the crack where the better jugs are.

Stick with the crack and just right of.

Standing start, straight up the corner.

PA: David Malins, 11 Jul 2014

Contrived harder variant. Use the corner crack only, no sides, stick it in deep!

sit start, up right hand crack

PA: David Malins, 11 Jul 2014

A good problem that forces the use of a high heel hook. Stay away from the block to the right, and the cracks to the left! Find the hidden right hand around the corner and slap up that blunt left arete.

Start on LH side pull and big pocket in the middle of the wall. Work up crimps to a nice top.

PA: Niggles, 6 Ag 2022

Start on RH side pull and big pocket in the middle, work up the face and then smear up to top out on nice jugs.

PA: mark fulford, 6 Ag 2022

Sit start move straight up the crack to top out. No bridging on the right hand side wall.

PA: Matt Herbert, 24 Abr 2016

Sit start on the left, traverse along crack to the right and then straight up and out. Don't touch the floor!

PA: 24 Abr 2016

Work up the slightly overhanging prow on cool pockets.

PA: Tim Booth, 6 Ag 2022

Bridge out in the corner to the left of S crack for some fun, easy climbing.

PA: mark fulford, 6 Ag 2022

Starting on right hand arete move up through middle of wall to top following s looking crack. Wall on the left not in and ledge to right of top is out.

PA: Hayden davey, 29 Mar 2020

Start with RH side pull and other hand out left in pocket, smear feet up to gain decent side pulls on both sides of the block then balance up to gain the top.

Sit start on the LH side, work your way around to the RH starting side pull of the stand start and then up as per normal.

PA: Tim Booth, 6 Ag 2022

Sit start on right side of face. Move straight up the wall to committing top. Big span will help...

PA: Jack Folkes, 2013

Dyno variation to In Deep. From the obvious jug to top. Big and committing.

Cerrado

Temptation from above, death from below.

  • This entire pillar and the “project” which was once on it have now fallen down and no longer exist.

Easy corner variant to help beginners. Start at undercling.

Tricky section moving through the V3.

Sit start low on centre face. Move up and left around vague arete to committing move for the top. No bridging on wall to the left.

PA: Yianni Barthelmess, 2013

Sit start low on centre face. Move straight up to another committing move for the top.

PA: Jack Folkes, 2013

Straight up face. Watch out for some loose blocks on the left!

Cerrado

* This route is confirmed destroyed (the whole pillar collapsed!)

The East-West wall in the middle of the quarry, where the main track passes through. Routes listed Left to Right, i.e. West to East to the sea.

Small fridge block at the end, using only the free standing block to hug and kick your way to the top. Sit start left in pocket and right on arete crimp jug. Jaime Williams (FA)

PA: Jaime Williams, 4 Jun 2022

Sit start next to spring tide, use the crack to lay back to the top exiting left

PA: Jaime Williams, 4 Jun 2022

Sit start below the break on crimps. Move up via good holds to a committing move for the top.

PA: Yianni Barthelmess & Jack Folkes, 2013

Sit start matched in upside down 7 shaped hold, head straight up via edges on face, arete cracks either side are out. Match the top lip, step left and walk out for a safe top out. Jaime Williams (FA)

PA: Jaime Williams, 4 Jun 2022

Low match in deep crack. Simple left right motions up with pad / half pad crimp, good grip. Finish at the two jugs on left and right of the corner. Careful of surrounding rocks.

PA: Aiden Wingate, 31 Ag 2019

(1) Up the tallest cleanest looking central crack in the wall.

PA: Chunder, Muir & Graeme Hill

In the clearing before the Quarry opening, on the right side of Crimp Pimp. Almost sit start, left and right on either corners crimps (very poor). Up between the two arrêts, then crossing into the second right arrêts jug to finish.

PA: Aiden Wingate, 31 Ag 2019

A fun bouncy pillar on solid jugs. Either stretchy or jumpy, depending on your style (and height).

A pikers variant exists following the big vertical crack to the adjacent right pillar. Subtract 5 grades!

May have been top-roped by AA in the old days (TBC).

PAL: Murray, 28 Mayo 2020

The first of the three main cracks on this compact little wall. A stiff little lay back crack with not many snails.

(1) Up the stiff little layback crack taking care not to doom to many little blue snails to their deaths when they try to attack you.

PA: Chunder & Graeme Hill

The next one along the line, a sort of open corner finger lock crack, good protection and interesting little blue snails.

(1) The open corner climbed on nasty flared little blue snails.

Arete climbing, nice holds when you need them and flows well. Slightly technical in places.

Note: The base of the climb can get very slippery after rough seas, recommend clipping first bolt from the ledge to stop you/belayer slipping out to sea.

PA: Murray, 28 Mayo 2020

The left crack, two metres right of STEB. This climb ascends a pair of cracks in a wall, crossing from the right crack to the left at the start and back to the right crack at the top.

(1) Up criss-crossing like a mad man.

PA: Chunder & Graeme Hill

Good for practising your squeeze and wrapping yourself to rock.

Good for practising your fist jams.

Layback up the features.

Good for practising your stemming, or Sasuke 4th Stage.

Good for practising your hand jams

The Southernmost sea wall. To the right of the access track as you first come in to the quarry.
