Ascensions dans The Amphitheatre

Quality!! The finish is magic!!

Salty goodness !! Really enjoyable!!

Nice climb although was very sandy when we climbed it. Decent can rap of a gumtree or walk out towards the amphitheatre.

Took a few hours to find the start of the route. Walked up the left side of the amphitheatre then kept going higher than the environmental wall before finding the start. Unfortunately it was wet and went back to environmental wall instead. Allow enough time to find this climb! Awesome scenery and great adventure.

Wicked City into Quedge. 1st pitch makes the climb

First trad lead and a real adventure! Took a long time to find the start of the climb owing to this being our first trip to Kalbarri, so we were pretty tired before we started. Great exposure, lovely location, good protection and climbing pretty easy.

What an adventure. Having never been to Kalbarri before it took us the best part of 2 hours to find our way to the start of the route! The “descent gully” use to access the route is tricky to find and even trickier to get up with a pack of gear. Suggest taking a second rope to haul up gear and rap down. Once on the route we had a blast. James’ first multipitch and first “proper” trad lead on the first pitch. Brilliant exposure. Highly recommend.

Amazing first pitch with a sick belay ledge. Second and third pitch were pretty ordinary. Rock was pretty solid. Instead of traversing the lip of the roof for the second pitch, we climbed up the enclosed corner up to the huge terrace. Worth it just for the first pitch!

First pitch is actually pretty good with good pro (though I threw down a couple of loose rocks). You can protect the traverse crux by reaching over and setting a #2 camalot. The other pitches were very chilled out but a good intro to multi-pitch trad. Scariest part was setting up the anchor at the top of the scramble traverse.

First ascent, very pleased with it.

Last pitch is chossy as all hell and the belay was basically me laying on the ground pressed up against a rock and a few shiity scrub bushes and hoping my seconder didn't fall due to holds braking off. Otherwise fun climb with exposed traverse.
