A fun scramble in an awesome location, can easily be done on majority trad gear. Jogged in and out.

Views from the Fortress are always great! The climbing is alright. Not much gear needed. Although you could insist on climbing it more traditionally and eschew some of the carrots... which I ended up doing just to make it more interesting.

Good adventure, very comfortable cruisy climbing. Should've trimmed the rack a bit for the sake of the approach, only needed 4 pieces (mid sized cams and a nut).

Take snacks. I can't climb 170m without snacks.

I can't do much without snacks. I'm weak like that.

Easy climbing, hardest part is route finding. Some of the carrots are hidden amongst chossy iron stone. Climb isn’t direct rather it wonders around the face.

Mega windy day so plans changed from Margarine Ridge to Tom Thumb. First abseil was tough in the wind, but the route felt relatively sheltered once we got on it. It presented a nice mix of easy climbing in a great location. Having a rack of a few cams and nuts meant I felt the climb was well protected on the first and second pitches where there were less bolts/carrots around.

Beautiful view and great exposure. The walk in and out is all part of the adventure. It’s a very easy climb but good to blow the cobwebs out if you haven’t climbed in a while. Would highly recommend if you were taking a beginner. It’s a mix of a scramble and a climb.

Finding the beginning of the climb is a touch difficult. There is a buttress out on which the anchors are--it helps to know exactly what this looks before setting off. Researching this and the walk in as much as possible helps--we did and still added 30 minutes due to getting lost.

The abseils are good. I was thinking of a 150m vertical abseil, so looking out over the ledge each time was reassuring. It's more like a slope which is broken with dirt, rock/scrub horizontals, so that the one abseil pitch is like 15m, 25m and then 10m. It can be quite difficult to avoid vegetation and tree branches, and also knocking off rock. Helmets are required on those below, and they should be conscious of where they are standing and where the abseiler is.

The climbing is easy. The major difficulty is route finding - and by route finding is to say finding the bolts. My friend lead this and then I'd find carrots that he missed and then the climber after me would also find missed carrots. It is so juggy, when you look up it's not a vertical wall that you can follow the bolts - some parts its just when you're right in front of it - not below it or above it or to the side. Gear - whether cams - does not place.

For me as my first multi-pitch, as a seconder it was awesome. The climbing is good, no worries, i think even anxious climbers would be fine. My lead climber did not mind some mammoth run outs on due to missed carrots. Leading it for this reason does require a good head and a lot of people would not mind long run outs on grade 12 - but if you do, the exposure would make this unpleasant.

The start of the 2nd pitch is not a grade 12. The climb starts 1.2m off the grade--the ledge is a cave, getting the feet onto this lip is a seriously hard move--on a single pitch climb there would be a pile of rocks at the bottom for this first move.

Finding the bolts on the 4th pitch was extremely difficult. This is a grade 8. I wasn't leading, but the basically the guide said you start up to the right, then move left and straight up. The leader did, and then could not see a single bolt, anywhere, moving around.

If there were markers of where the bolts were leading this would be jolly good fun.

As my first multi-pitch, I have rated this as a mega classic for the grade (13). A sport 150m multi-pitch in a UNESCO Heritage Listed National Park, an abseil down into the Grose Valley, the stunning nature of the walk in--there would be nothing remotely like this for its grade elsewhere in Australia, and the fact that it is so good, I honestly don't know what more could be expected.

Less interesting the second time round. A good one to take your canyoner/bushwalker mate on though.

Not getting the ropes stuck on the abseils and rope drag are the cruxes.

With David Eckstein, alternate pitches, I failed to start the second pitch in the right place and ended up doing a pitch to the left behind the belay and finished it at the top of the last rappel station. we then traversed right to the correct belay.
