A few good problems on the overhanging wall right of the middle falls and some fun Deep Water Solo options over clean cold water!

RouteGradeStyleSelected ascents
1 Water dragon fly

From the ledge beneath the jumping rock, up left through the Water dragons' perch, up up and away!

PA: Unnamed Gabbi Gabbi children, 1800

V1 Psico bloc (deep water solo) 3m
2 Rainbow Lorikeets

Step across to the finish of Birds of Paradise, avoiding the crux and finishing on jugs.

PA: Matt Earsman

V0 Psico bloc (deep water solo) 4m
3 Kondalilla strangler

Set off from birds of paradise (V4) or Rainbow lorikeet (V1) and take the high road traversing the whole wall through the steepest part, exiting (exciting!) Onto the far shore with difficulty. Watch the poor landing in the beginning (spotter who's prepared to jump recommended!)

PA: Matthew Earsman

V1 Psico bloc (deep water solo) 5m
4 Hypoxic jibber jabber

From the traverse of rainbow lorikeets up the right side of the wall -caution is needed as there are submerged boulders under the first part of the route. A spotter and care recommended!

V1 Psico bloc (deep water solo) 4m
5 I love when I have climbing pain because it means I'm happy

An epic dyno over deep water. Traverse out from the left bank of rainbow lorikeets, find the jugs and some feet and go!

PA: Matthew Earsman, 15 Nov 2014

V3 Psico bloc (deep water solo) 4m
6 Pocketful of love

From the right side of the overhang, just left of the waterfall - up and through overhang to top over deep water (check - things change!)

V0 Psico bloc (deep water solo) 3m
7 Thrash and Splash

Directly up the centre of the wall to the jumping spot, resisting the temptation of the big holds to the side. Nice deep water underneath! (check it anyway) Climbing out of the water directly beneath the route gives it its grade,

V4 Psico bloc (deep water solo) 4m
8 Birds of Paradise

Leftwards traverse to the treed area right of the falls. A few hard moves with poor landing (spotter recommended) lead to fun moves over deep water. Start at the extreme right end of the overhanging wall. Please be careful of the little ferns in the 2 finger pocket, gently does it!

V3 Búlder 6m
9 The dreaded duck-diving spiders of doom

From underneath the severe overhang at the far left of the pool - you'll have to swim or wade to this one - traverse right to beneath the jumping rock using all footholds (including submerged V1). Jump in or finish up one of the routes there. Named after a large silvery spider that leapt into the water and swam down - and down!!

Equip: Matthew Earsman

V1 Psico bloc (deep water solo) 6m
10 Awesome wears no budgie smugglers

Step on from the left of the pool and hand traverse the high seam with poor foot holds (dry feet work best!) to the ledge beneath the jumping ledge. Careful in the first few meters where its quite shallow.

PA: Matt Earsman
