Limit. de l'accès hérité de Mt Alexander

PLEASE READ IF IT IS YOUR FIRST TIME TO MT ALEXANDER

Most of Mt Alexander is a regional (not national) park, so while climbing is permitted general rules apply; dogs are permitted on leash, fires only in established fire places (from Parks Victoria website).

Being able to climb at Mt Alexander is a privilege and climbers need to act accordingly; especially given the increased amount of climbers frequenting the area due to Grampians closures. Please do not drop litter (e.g. fingertape) - in fact, if you can, remove any litter you see when you leave. Please keep to existing trails where you can. Do not engage in overzealous cleaning of climbs - keep it to the minimum. Don't harm any trees. Be courteous to fellow users of the park.

Toilets are available at the Leanganook campground and at the mountain bike park near the Oak Forest (close to Harcourt). Should you need to defecate please do so in accordance with established practices for wilderness behaviour (e.g. stay away from water courses, digging a hole etc).

Please see individual access notes for each area.

Éthique hérité de Mt Alexander

Do not bolt highball problems except with agreement of the first ascentionist. In general, keep bolting to a minimum. Since 2010 there was been almost zero bolting of new routes.

The short thin crack just right of BoS

Up the right side of slab past two BR

This route was originally climbed and graded via what is now listed as the Direct Start. Unfortunately, the somewhat fragile flake that was the key to the early moves has been dislodged, thereby increasing the grade.

Note: As of June 2017, one of the belay bolts is loose. The remaining good bolt can be backed up with trad gear.

FFA: Max Keating & Karen Jones, 1988

Start right below the first bolt, without using the block or anything right of the flake.

Note: As of June 2017, one of the belay bolts is loose. The remaining good bolt can be backed up with trad gear.
