27 | ★★★ Forgotten Playground
An outstanding, sustained and varied free climb that challenges the full gamut of granite styles. This is a distinctly more approachable prospect than the other free routes on this end of the wall consisting of generally easier cruxes, fewer run-outs and less small gear. The route follows a logical line of features incorporating sections of the aid routes Knocking on Heavens Door, She, Clouded Queen, Ozymandias and Strange Ritual. Most pitches include a mix of natural gear and bolts. Take a standard rack up to a 3 Camalot including some micro cams, small and medium wires.

Fix a rope from the top of the first abseil in order to exit the route. From the chain at the top of the slab immediately behind (west) of the top of Queen Victoria pinnacle, abseil 40m to reach the notch behind the pinnacle. From the outer edge of the ledge on the north side of the pinnacle, abseil from the chain, down the route to a grassy ledge. Up the finger crack and seam, past a peg runner (not in situ) to the base of a corner. Up this and slab to the chain (belay). FA: Ian Anger, Malcolm Matheson & Rene ?, 1992 | 45m | |||

25 | Staple Diet
Abseil from trad gear about 8m to the right of the anchors atop 'Glossop Skins', down over the traverse of 'The Initiation', to a semi-hanging belay off two bolts in a gently-angled scoop. Easy slabbing past a couple of bolts, then up through the traverse of 'The Initiation' (BR), to gain a rightward-leaning groove (wires and small/medium cams). When this fizzles out, head up via three bolts (crux) to the top. FA: Kevin Lindorff 2008 | 30m, 6 | |||

25 | ★ Memoirs Of An Iconoclast
To access these next four routes it is worth doing a quick reconnaissance from the tourist lookout to locate the top of the buttress (down approximately west-southwest from the lookout) and the easiest way down to it. Scramble down then abseil from 3 bolts at the top of the buttress.

24 | Critical Mass
On the buttress down approximately north-easterly below Maharajah, this route starts 5m left of Contact Sport (which, in turn, takes the left arete of Compulsion). Up to the ledge at 4m. Boulder past the bolt runner to the small rising ramp. Move rightward up this to and past the final bolt on Contact Sport. FA: Kevin Lindorff & Alan Hope, 1994 | 15m, 2 | |||

Mount Buffalo The Gorge - North Side Queen Victoria Buttress | |||||
24 | ★★ Statute Of Limitations
Access as for Gaia and White Knuckle Days or by using a sizeable gumtree a little further northward along the gorge rim. Best to leave an abseil rope in place in case retreat needs to be sounded. Start approx 20m right of Gaia (and a few metres around right from the start of White Knuckle days) at a 2BB.
FA: Kevin Lindorff & Jeremy Boreham, 1995 | 50m, 2, 5 | |||
24 | ★★★ White-knuckle Days
An exceptional first pitch - sustained, varied and continuously engaging. Access via 80m of abseiling from the top of Gaia (there is a new set of rap chains at the top showing the way. The 80m can be broken into two abseils by using the new belay station 40m down on Gaia, though a single 100m static rope makes life easier and provides a retreat option if required). Starts from the double carrot bolt belay between Gaia and Statute of Limitations (see p112 of the 2006 comprehensive Mt Buffalo guidebook).
FA: Kevin Lindorff & Andy Schmutter January 2018 | 80m, 2, 10 | |||
24 | ★★ Gaia
Access via a 75-80m abseil from chains. This rap station is located beside a huge gum tree that leans out precariously (and no doubt is destined to fall into the depths of the gorge under its own weight), on the rim of the gorge around about 50m (?) around northward and down a little from the north edge of the top of the Queen Victoria buttress. This rap station can be used to access Wall to Wall, Send out for More Pizza, Gaia, White Knuckle Days and Statute of Limitations. The abseil can be broken into two, utilising the double bolt belay at the top of the first pitch of Gaia and WKD. There is now a bolted, independent, direct start to the original version of Gaia, as well as an extra bolt in the top of the first pitch, and two bolts in the top pitch. This new reincarnation provides a more even, sustained, but less death-defying route than the original. The first pitch, in particular, is one to savour. Start at the double hangers, mid-way between the original start of Gaia (in the corner) and White Knuckle Days.
