Single pitch routes along a broken, poor rock face.
At least half of the access track in, is across private land. The NP Boundary starts at the big gully.
Please stay on the track, no pets, no cairns or tape to mark the route in. It's pretty straightforward: the North side of Maroon runs East to West.
Walk up the slope from the sluice gate to the meadow, turn Right at the forestry fire track:
North West Columns - Track turn-off
and follow this around below the knoll to a grassy paddock:
Paparazzi Cliff - Fire track to Paparazzi
angle up at this point till you arrive at a steep fire access track and follow this up the steep slope to where it joins the main fire track and turn Right. Now follow this across several shallow gullies to the big gully with logs as retaining steps and "Heartbreak Ridge" on the other side:
Paparazzi Cliff - descent into last gully
Up the steep slope (more logs) to the ridge above:
The Insignificant Cliff - Heartbreak Ridge
now follow the ridge up to The Insigificant Cliff (ca. 110m elevation gain.)

turn Right here & follow the cliff line up the broken slope below The Coffee Shop, to arrive at Paparazzi Cliff & Graveyard Ridge turn-off:
Paparazzi Cliff - Paparazzi-Graveyard Ridge turn-off
head up towards Paparazzi for about 10-15m, then head out Right, through some Bush Boys & scrub, across a narrow ledge on a short cliff. Continue up the rocky scree slope, keeping the cliff face on your Left, till you arrive at the 5m high corner. Climb this (grade 3), then you have arrived. Make your way up the slope to the cliff. The last/first route: Off The Log will be down on your Right.
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.
First named by Trevor Gynther in the 70s. Aside from Rick & Chris establishing The Tiger Face Escape Route here in 1968, no development until Herb Brandmeier & John Du Bont developed the cliff in 2005. Mark Gamble established 3 trad routes here later.

A few years ago there was basically Frog Buttress and Coolum. Since then there has been more development than Barangaroo and South East Queensland should be on any climbers radar no matter what your style. Except ice climbing, definitely no ice climbing. But over 1250 routes with hard sport, multipitches and quality trad to make a great trip.
