Nodes em Flames Wall

This crag is located on the Medlow Bath cliff line between The Underworld and Pole 28 crags. The routes start from the halfway ledge and the crag is about 25 m high. The three original climbs were protected by a mix of carrot bolts (glue-in), ring bolts and cams/SLCDs (where horizontal breaks or pockets were present); as such they are not sport routes. A couple of unknown sport routes have been added recently. Routes described L-R.

This area is located on private property owned by the Hydro Majestic Hotel. Access could be removed at any time. Please respect the land.

Some good rock and moves. Start as for UIF, then left a few metres across the ledge to a carrot bolt. Then go straight up the grey rock past another carrot bolt to the small ledge. Follow the steeper orange rock past cam placements and ring bolts. Exit the crux by stepping up to the left, then up to clip the last ring before the loweroffs. Take bolt plates, a 1.2 m sling to extend the second carrot bolt on UIF before traversing left on the initial ledge, and cams, including #3, #0.5 and #4 (immediately after crux) Camalots. Three ring bolts in total.

Climbs the grey and orange wall to finish up the closed flake at the top. Locate the first carrot bolt just over a slabby bulge to start. Climb up past a second carrot then small cams in pockets to a minor ledge and the first ring bolt (avoid the potentially loose block on the left here). Climb up into the orange rock past rings and cam placements, then up the flake to the loweroffs. Take bolt plates, cams including #0.4, #0.5, #0.75 and #3 Camalots, and a couple of extendable runners. Five ring bolts in total.

Start as for Up in Flames for two carrot bolts then right line of ringbolts. Caution - the rock quality deteriorates at the top two bolts. First ascent info unknown.

Orange bolted streak about 20m right of Unknown. Some poor quality rock. Stickclip first bolt and climb to the right of it. First ascent info unknown.

This climb goes up the sharp arete feature approximately 20 right of UIF. The start is above an under-cut section of the wall. Stick-clip first ring and batman up to establish hands on the lip. Pull up and on to the wall (crux) then climb up to the ledge past a break that takes a #4 Camalot. Rings and different sized cams protect the middle third of the climb, which is a pleasant vertical wall, to another ledge. From there, climb the nicely positioned final sharp arete past three rings to loweroffs. Six ring bolts in total.
