Blackwater | |||||
V3 | ★ Sausage Crumble
Located 50m west of the Blackwater car park on the road Start on the right of the arete, and work your way into the scoop for a easy top out. Climb down tree at back of boulder FA: Sausage, Lachlan Anderson & Patrick Kien, 6 Feb 2022 | 4m | |||
18 | Sandline
The centre line on the pyramid shaped boulder 20m W of MS. FA: B Aikman & Dave McGregor, 2020 | 10m | |||
16 | ★ Executive Outcomes
The arete L of S. Protected by RPs. FA: B Aikman, Dave McGregor, Greg Butler & R Macpherson, 2020 | 10m | |||
V1 | ★ My Private Beulah
Might be slightly sandbagged. Up using the rail for left hand and top out. NOTE: Descent off this boulder is by down-climbing or jumping. FA: David Nott, 2013 | 4m | |||
V1 | For a Fistful of Pebbles
Sit start using the undercling, careful not to lever off the flake, and huck to the top. FA: David Nott, 2013 | 3m | |||
V0 | Wriggle, Wriggle, Wriggle Yeah
Not your usual boulder problem. A V0 chimney. Up and over. If you head right to the back it's shorter. If you want to add a bit of spice, top out on the big mushroom on top with a heel hook so you feel really insecure. Just don't fall off from there because you'd probably kill yourself impaled on a tree. Also, I take no responsibility for any stupid decisions you make. FA: David Nott, 2013 | 6m | |||
V0 | Bustedarse
3 metres left of RF. Stand start off right hand side pull in horizontal. Up and over. FA: 13 Jun 2020 | 2m | |||
V4 | ★ Reluctant Fundemantelist
On the platform below BOTBS. Sit start below large pocket then up and over. FA: 2020 | 2m | |||
V2 | Spicer
Hand crack in cave below EO. FA: 2020 | 4m | |||
V2 | ★ Invasive species low
Sit start at low jug on the lower right hand side of the boulder. Follow the jugs around left until the tree is in the way the up and over the top. FA: Barbsie | 3m | |||
V2 | ★ Invasive species high
Sit start the same as the low. Make one move left then dead point to the top of the boulder, then traverse left using the jugs as foot holds until you can top out the same as the low. FA: James Lister, Apr 2020 | 3m | |||
V1 | ★ Confiture
200m back up the road from Blackwater car park on the valley side a small cluster of boulders with perfect jams - sit start for full tick FA: Ryan Macpherson | 4m | |||
Hill side Maci Boulder | |||||
V5 | ★★ Tourist Season
Stand start on side pulls and follow the holds up. The awkward sit start is the same grade. FA: James Lister, Sep 2020 | 4m | |||
V5 | ★★ Squeeze me
Sit start with feet on the partially detached flake and matching the side pull. Up the line of least resistance. FA: James Lister, Jun 2021 | 4m | |||
Hill side Deadpoint boulder | |||||
V5 | ★ Dead point
Sit start on slopers. Pull on and readjust to better holds then dead point for the good pinch sloper jug. -35.3687551, 148.9290742 FA: James Lister, Apr 2020 | 3m | |||
V5 | ★★ Tesalate
Sit start on the lower 2 crack edges right of deadpoint, climb to the scoop and top out. | ||||
V5 | Fat Stacks
Pad stack to start on the crimp on the right side of the face around the corner from Tesalate. Climb up through edges and gastons. | ||||
V5 | Cheese
Sit start in the corner on the back side of the boulder. Climb strait up. | ||||
Hill side Milkcap Boulder | |||||
V2 | Static way
Up through the crack-line statically. FA: David Nott | 3m | |||
V4 | Dyno-might
A short, but deceptively hard dyno. Might be easier once it cleans up a bit; hard bit is getting enough friction off smears to dyno. FA: David Nott | 3m | |||
V3 | Saffron Milkcap
Sit Start as for Dyno-might, traverse right along crack and finish up Sit-starty. FA: zoe r | ||||
V5 | ★★ Sit-starty
Up from crimps to a campus move on compression holds - or use the tips crack. Balance up and mantle the top. Pretty finger-size dependent as to the grade. FA: David Nott | 3m | |||
V8 | Trickery
Sit Start on the back of the boulder on 2 flat ledges. Tricky first move into a whale of a mantle | ||||
V5 | Dusk
Sit Start 4m left of Trickery, Punchy first move and mantle | ||||
V6 | Grand Traverse
A 15 (?) metre traverse of the whole boulder, smearing all the way. Will need some cleaning up post-fires. | 1m | |||
Grand Royale | |||||
V8 | Brass Monkey
Stand start and along underclings all the way around the boulder to topout on the far right on easy ground. Looks to have been significantly damaged by the fires, possibly harder. | 12m | |||
V7 | ★ Sabotage
Sit start on the incut/s and up and over the slabby section to topout (if you're brave) or drop off. Seems harder than 7 since the fires. | 6m | |||
V9 | Grand Royal
Sit start at the corner of the boulder as for 'Madame Lash' and head up and left to join the underclings. It's unclear whether an intermediate hold has been damaged by the fires but seems difficult to get to the underclings. | 8m | |||
V9 | ★★ Royale with Cheese
Sit start on leftmost crimp as for Sabotage, climb right into Madam Lash. | ||||
V8/9 | ★★ Madame Lash
Sit start and traverse right through a line of very small crimps, topping out for Brass Monkey. If you stay off the higher crimps, add a grade. | 7m | |||
Plieku | |||||
V5 | #1
A pure slab problem after a rockover onto the one rail/set of holds the problem has. Then it's desperately trying to levitate upwards. | 6m | |||
V5 | #2
A problem marred by a tree right in the way. Sit start. | 5m | |||
V5 | #3 crimp ... mantle
| 6m | |||
V5 | #4
May be called 'Rino'? A problem reminiscent of 'Spruce Moose', climbing your way up a prow. Currently needs gardening as there's a tree in the way. | 3m | |||
V3 | #5 Ho Chi Minh Trail
Unknown at this stage but it looks like the problem traverses across the top of the boulder. You will want some spotters and there's currently some blackberry in the way. | 4m | |||
V4 | #6
This problem was destroyed by the Canberra fires of 2003. | 4m | |||
V1 | #7 crack
A nice little crack line, with a bit of an arete to rest against if you get freaked out. The crack itself provides bomber laybacking with amazing friction and some reasonable incuts inside the crack to give extra confidence. | 5m | |||
V1 | #8
Seems to go up the arete next to the #7 crack. Pretty easy for the grade. | 4m | |||
V1 | #9
Up a virtual curved chimney. Very easy terrain. | 4m | |||
V1 | #10
Slab problem. Head a bit further out right (i.e. don't use the arete) and it's more like V2 and genuine slabbing. | 5m | |||
V3 | #11 arete
The grade depends on which way you come at this. You'll know which one's the harder way when you look at it! | 5m | |||
V4 | #12 arete
A bit of a puzzler, good holds to start then blanks out, but is apparently still kosher after the fires. Might need a dyno to go. | 5m | |||
Kazbah | |||||
V5 | Trust
A highball, very height dependent. Sit start. Sink a jam (if you can) up high and use a small notch for your left hand to campus up and get your feet set. That's the hard move, the rest is grade 14. For shorties, it's going to be more difficult but there's a reasonable number of holds. You can get off the back of the boulder, if you're careful. Obviously, don't use the tree... (it actually is quite tempting when you're trying to get the side-smear!) | 6m | |||
V3 | Trust LH/stand
Start with left hand in a quarter pad notch and right hand in the crack, and crank on up laybacking to get your feet started. | 6m | |||
V0 | ★ Squirm
Sit start in the left corner FA: Andrew Cadogan-Cowper, 13 Jun 2020 | 3m | |||
V0 | ★ Squirm and Turn
Sit start in left corner as for squirm, but hand traverse across crack, finishing up the right corner FA: Andrew Cadogan-Cowper, 13 Jun 2020 | 3m | |||
V2 | ★ Everything You Can Until You Can’t
50m south of the kazbah is a boulder with a thin finger crack FA: Andrew Cadogan-Cowper, 8 Jun 2020 | 5m | |||
★★★ some passing cockroaches attempt at glory
No info exists, though there are a few ascents logged, but all pre '10. The guide they claim to come from doesn't exist either. There are ascents logged, so I'm reluctant to merge. Although the evidence mounts that these were 'some passing cockroaches attempt at glory' - See old/new (who knows?) routing thread on Chocky '13 | |||||
V11 | ★★ Walking on Eggshells
Left side of the large face at the top of the crag, one of the first boulders if approaching from the top. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QTyUKfN2aVE | ||||
V4 | ★★★ Humpty Dumpty
Try not to have a great fall. Stand start on the right side of the face and take the line of least resistance up. | ||||
V7 | ★ Cracking the Egg
Start as for Walking on eggshells and climb right to top as for Humpty Dumpty. | ||||
Matricide | |||||

VB | ★ Decent off the boulder
The crack flake 10m right of Split definitive. | 5m | |||
VB | ★ Fissure
100mt uphill from the Matricide boulder - a split boulder with nice jams FA: Ryan Macpherson | 5m | |||
VB | ★ Blip
On the back side of the Stone Age boulder. FA: Cads, 17 May 2020 | 3m | |||
Scone Rock | |||||
V5 | Good Things Come in Small Packages Sit
Drop the rope, grab a pad and start it from a sit. | ||||
Cracked Egg | |||||
V0 | ★★ La Croix
Great variety - Up slab to finger locks and jugs, before an offwidth finish FA: Ryan Macpherson & Andrew Cadogan-Cowper, 24 May 2020 | 7m | |||
Below Kazbah | |||||
