description
Seriously awesome corner crack feature. Originally done in two pitches, these days it's usually done in one. Unless you like bumping gear, two #4 and a few #3 camalots are recommended.
To access, scramble down Burston’s gulley (or rap off a tree at the top with a 60m rope).
Up the dirty looking start to ledge, then into the corner. Follow the crack to roof, with memorable moves around right, then follow seam to tree belay.

éthique
Climbing here varies from trad climbing, mainly up obvious lines and features, to sport climbing up slabs and sections of rock impossible to protect with natural gear. Of course, there are lots of climbs protected with a mixture of trad gear augmented with occasional bolt runners. Given that the trad ethic is still strong here, and the continuing need to minimize our environmental climbing 'footprint', please avoid unilateral decisions to retro-bolt and be restrained in using fixed protection when establishing new routes.

This area is for adventure climbing and for those that love the higher mountain landscapes and rock formations that are unique to the area. Mt Buffalo offers both single and multi-pitch climbs and mainly uses trad gear for protection but there is the odd sport climb around for those that only want to clip bolts.
