A Crag Guide gives an extensive view of all sub areas and climbs at a point in the index. It shows a snapshot of the index heirachy, up to 300 climbs (or areas) on a single web page. It shows selected comments climbers have made on a recently submitted ascent.
At a minor crag level this should be suitable for printing and taking with you on a climbing trip as an adjunct to your guidebook.

descripción
A little section of easier boulder problems along the usual Shire sandstone escarpment. The walk-in is one of the easiest around. This cliff face south and get no sun. Most landings are flat.
restricciones
For over 50 years climbers in the Sutherland Shire have enjoyed free access to many fantastic crags and caves. But as of 2014 there have been access problems emerging at several climbing and bouldering areas due to aboriginal art sites and shell middens in caves. Sutherland Shire Council and the Dept of Enviroment and Heritage have announced closures and sign-posted some of these aboriginal sites, with further closures and signs to be added during summer/autumn 2016/2017. Areas of particular problem are ground level overhangs with flat bases, the type of terrain popular at hard bouldering areas. Whilst the details are sorted out keep a low profile, clean up ALL rubbish (inc removing mattresses in bouldering caves) and avoid climbing at closed areas. In particular treat non-climbers you see at crags with the utmost respect as they could be rangers, archeologists, traditional owners or anyone else with a dim view of climbers and the ability to shut us out. Climbing in Royal National Park has been officially banned for many years - probably due mostly to the Wattamolla 'don't jump off rocks' cliff-diving-into-water ban.

Acceso
Park at 41 Buchanan Ave, Bonnet Bay. The top of the cliff is on the other side of the road. 5 second walk-in to the first problem.
Historia
May have been climbed on before, but there was very little evidence when Neil Monteith spent half a day doing the majority of problems here in 2015 in between hospital visits for his brand new kid. Cleaning and loose rock removal was required. If you know anything further feel free to update this!
