Description

Was originally planning on calling it the playground due to the density of fun problems, but there's nothing easy here. Warm up somewhere else first, Cohiba is probably the best option.

There are a bunch of harder projects still to go, many of which look amazing

The whole area faces west, so it stays cool all morning. Good for summer

Limit. de l'accès hérité de Western Area

This is part of the Lower Cotter water catchment area. There are a number of rehabilitation projects underway to manage run off and erosion.

Approche

Update June 2021
A gate has been installed on the West side of the intersection near Cohiba East. If this gate is closed, you'll have to walk along the road to get to The Gym.

Head down the ridge straight towards the boulders, it's less than 50m to the first set. From this there are another few sets of boulders scattered down the hill. It's pretty scrubby at the moment, but paths will be made in time

Éthique hérité de Pierce's Creek

Pierces Creek is primarily a bouldering area however a number of naturally protected lines have been established over the years. No bolting of routes is accepted. Instead, ascentionists use natural protection on the higher problems, or where that is not available, rely on mats, spotters, and gumption.

Historique

Scouted several times in 2016, and possibly prior. It started development in December 2016, and is currently in progress.

Location will be updated once I've finished initial development

The first pair of boulders when you come down from the road. Note you will need to fix a rope in order to get off the taller (Rubicon) boulder.

Up the right diagonal overhang from a sitstart to matching on the rail. The direct topout would be a serious undertaking, but would at least complete the problem

FA: Dane Evans, 10 Déc 2016

Start up Failed Set, from the rail move right along the undercling to the right arete and finish up V1

FA: Dane Evans, 10 Déc 2016

Direct, obvious crack at top from Mended Start

Sit start at the loose block, and continue up the weakness and right arete

FA: callum, 10 Déc 2016

Sit start on the far right. Up the wall staying left of, and off the tree

Nasty landing and a highball ... these might go better with gear. I'll have another look when it's shadier

Thin crack that packs quite a few moves into a small space. Avoid using the granite block behind the start. Takes .3, .2, and .1 BD cams. The final move to the summit is unprotected and on crispy rock so be very careful.

FA: Andrew Cadogan-Cowper, 29 Août 2020

The most obvious, and easiest way to the top. Still, the gear is tricky in the top half, and be very careful of crumbly rock.

FA: Andrew Cadogan-Cowper, 29 Août 2020

Trend left toward Reverence, then head right and up.

FA: Andrew Cadogan-Cowper, 15 Août 2020

Down from the previus area, and left a little. Approach is best through the hole, or from the left side.

Up the lower leftward diagonal break. It gets high, and looks rather hard

The higher of the leftward diagonal cracks. Looks easy enough, but its high, and the rock may be suspect

The rising leftward traverse. Take care not to damage the grass trees (xanthorrhoea) at the base.

FA: Andrew Cadogan-Cowper, 11 Août 2020

Long admired cracked boulder finally put to rest - start with finger locks inside the cave. Big moves (V5-6) over the lip to a pleasant, yet still technical layback

FA: Ryan Macpherson & Tom Ohara
