A mini-escarpment and a few boulders near Mt Eyre.
The buttresses along the top of Mt Eyre are scrappy so this little outcrop nearby was investigated. The rock was solid Flinders quartzite and the short cracks proved irresistible. We chose the safer option of climbing rather than bouldering. The blocs are probably worth checking out if a boulderer is in the area, but we're not putting Mt Eyre forward as an exciting new alternative to The Knobs or Moonarie!
The crag appears to be just within the western boundary of the Yappala Indigenous Protected Area, established in 2014. As such, future visits will require permission from the managers of this IPA.
Take Yappala Rd west of Hawker and continue towards Neuroodla. The outcrop can be seen from the road and is at the base of the ridge stretching north-east from the prow of Mt Eyre (6km further on). About 25 km from Hawker, 20 minutes walk from car.
