questões de acesso
The climbing is on a coarse granite (Stanthorpe Adamalite). Most of the climbing areas are above well used bushwalking tracks. Be mindful of bushwalkers and tread lightly. This area has had access problems in the past and underlying 'ban climbing' tensions are still around. Climbing is banned altogether on the First Pyramid and Sphinx Rock. Stay off climbs here at ALL times. Ref 2010 Management Plan

Not sure about the location of the described problems but the photos are of some amazing boulders near The Junction on Bald Rock Creek. Feel free to send the lines and then add topos.
ética
Note almost all the sport climbing is on Carrot Bolts. Bring bolt hangers.
DO NOT PLACE ANY NEW BOLTS anywhere in the Park Boundary. As per the 2010 Park Management Plan. Climbing is banned altogether on the First Pyramid and Sphinx Rock. Stay off climbs here at ALL times.
