Limit. de l'accès hérité de Mt Maroon

Access from the carpark at Cotswold Rd. to the National Park is across gazetted private land - from the sluice gate:

walk up roughly 400m to the National Parks sign:

This is the start of the National Park. Visitors are urged to stay on the path or use established tracks, rather than blazing a new trail.

Approche

Follow the hiker's track up to the Viewpoint Buttress outcrop, then about 100-200mm further along the track. (Do not go up the ridgeline.)

Éthique hérité de Mt Maroon

Sport bolting is a big no-no here. If you place a bolt here, you'd better have a damn good reason, even then, expect it to be chopped.

Left of Jo Jo: up the vague crack, past a flake & up to small cave. Out right & up to ledge, finish up off-width.

FA: Rick White & John Hattink, 1973

Start up shallow corner 1m left of Jezebel. Finish up arete.

FA: Robert Staszewski & Jo Straker, 1981

The prominent crack/weakness that runs up the middle of the face. Good gear. Rap off tree at top.

FA: Robert Staszewski & Rick White, 1973

Very bold up the arete right of Jezebel. Hardly any pro worth speaking of, so prepare for a solo ascent. Fantastic climbing, though.

FA: Robert Staszewski, Peter Tocker & Bruce Stoff, 1981

FA: Terry Svingen, 2004

Right, up behind the main buttress. A prominent off-width. Up this to horizontal break, step left & up arete.

FA: Terry Svingen (solo), 2004

About 10-15m right of Solitaire, past the chossy section. The first prominent crackline on the face. Up this to top.

Crack right of Nine One One.
