18 Senior Citizens

A delightful second pitch and the approach isn't too bad despite appearances.

Start at a right-facing corner leading to an overhang above the terrace.

  1. 25m (15) Bridge corner up to and past overhang. Easy crack and then face climb on the right to avoid scrub. Near the top move right and up to a belay on the right.

  2. 15m (18) Step left and up groove and face crack to hard finish when crack fades. Rap anchor directly above.

21 Take Me to Elwood

Hard start and good top pitch. Start 5 metres right of 'Senior Citizens' at an overhanging groove.

  1. 20m (21) Hard moves lead to easy corner. Up to belay on right.

  2. 20m (19) Climb the stepped orange corner on the right to rap anchor. Protection is difficult in places.

17 Bats In The Belfry

A good old-fashioned route – a major geological fault above Pan Grove, between Senior Citizens etc and The Bat Cave. It’s the polished chimney right of Rat on Roller Skates, and is visible from the Wimmera Highway.

Chimney and bridge glassy rock past various blockages, exiting left at the top.

An alternate finish is to traverse left from the first chockstone for 3 or 4 metres then go up to rap bolt. Added by Nod and Kieran Loughran 25/10/2018
