루트들 전통등반로서 Turtle Rock에서

Follow the track another 300 metres or so past Sphinx Rock (i.e. 3.8km from campsite).

Start at the obvious detached flake behind the Turtle Rock sign where the track first meets the rock. From the top of the flake follow the slab to the top without any gear. FA Solo

Left of the large slab wall area at the end of the track there is a second large wall with an obvious finger crack line splitting the wall and trending left. Lower down it has an overlapping arete formed by the right side of the crack line's rock. This is right in front of the large tree growing there.

Follow the finger crack through the crux section lower down to gain the slabby headwall, some balancy nut placements higher up but on fairly easy ground give an exciting finish.

Plenty of size 2-5 nuts and a few slightly larger cams leave you very well protected throughout.

plenty of far back rock a the top to allow for a multi point anchor.

Two metres left of Mozartiana up flake to bolt. Move right then diagonally left to the top. Take the RP’s.

Follow the thin crack three metres left of The Tempest past two bolts to a tree belay (well back).

Don’t bother with the rack and don’t fall off now, ya hear? Boulder the start two metres right of Charapace and head straight up.

About 40 meters down from gully from Staircase, clip the bolt, step off the boulder and head up to the second bolt. Left and up to a third bolt and easily to the top. SLCD belay.

No runners. The next line of holds is three metres left of I’m A Fraggile. Don’t bust an ankle bouldering the start, then straight up and right to finish. Geoff Weigand (Solo) Sept 1984

Follow the wide crack three metres left of Quick Quiz to the tree. Rob Staszewski early 1980s’

Pull onto the high foothold about eight metres left of Quick Quiz, and continue up to join Wading Ape at the first bolt. Scott Camps (Solo) April 1986

Go left and up from the belay to traverse four metres left along small foot ledges to a short flake. Up, moving slightly right to a bolt. Push it out diagonally left to a second bolt and then up and left again to a third bolt. Steeply through the bulge to finish. Scott Camps and John Pearson April 1986

The next three routes are also accessed from the summit. Walk down a northwestfacing gully to a large, sloping platform.

The strenuous layback corner on the right hand side. Rob Staszewski and Shane Chemello early 1980’s

Near the edge of the slab (two metres right of Summerbreeze) pull onto the wall just left of the shallow groove to a jug/plate. Sling this and up to a bolt. Left and up to step back right at the top of the groove to a second bolt. A reachy move right leads to a jug and sling. Back left and up to tree belay (well back).

Now back to ground level…

Steep and sustained. This is the steep wall down from Millions Of Dead Punks. About 55 metres around the corner from Wading Ape Direct Start from a low platform on the right. Up thin moves past two bolts. Left and up steeply through the middle of the wall past two more bolts to a marginal rest at the fifth bolt. Left and up intermittent cracks in the bulge (natural pro) to the sixth bolt. Steeply up to the seventh bolt and then an exciting finish up a slab to the top. Tree belay well back.

This is the offwidth crack in the southern section of Turtle rock. The cliff face is facing north. It is detached from all other climbing sections. The crack starts at flaring hand jams , passes through a small lip, and opens into an off width. Crux is getting through the lip. Top out and easily walk up a Three bits of vegetation remains in the crack. Belay from an excellent gum tree.
