FA: David Nott, 2013

Boulder 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

Boulder 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

Boulder 6m
V0 Bustedarse

3 metres left of RF. Stand start off right hand side pull in horizontal. Up and over.

FA: 13 Jun 2020

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

Boulder 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

Boulder 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

Boulder 4m
Hill side Maci Boulder

Stand start on side pulls and follow the holds up. The awkward sit start is the same grade.

FA: James Lister, Sep 2020

Boulder 4m

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

Boulder 4m

Boulder
Hill side Milkcap Boulder
V2 Static way

Up through the crack-line statically.

FA: David Nott

Boulder 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

Boulder 3m
V3 Saffron Milkcap

Sit Start as for Dyno-might, traverse right along crack and finish up Sit-starty.

FA: zoe r

Boulder
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

Boulder 3m
V8 Trickery

Sit Start on the back of the boulder on 2 flat ledges. Tricky first move into a whale of a mantle

Boulder
V5 Dusk

Sit Start 4m left of Trickery, Punchy first move and mantle

Boulder
V6 Grand Traverse

A 15 (?) metre traverse of the whole boulder, smearing all the way. Will need some cleaning up post-fires.

Boulder 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.

Boulder 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.

Boulder 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.

Boulder 8m
V9 Royale with Cheese

Sit start on leftmost crimp as for Sabotage, climb right into Madam Lash.

Boulder
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.

CMCC

Boulder 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.

Boulder 6m
V5 #2

A problem marred by a tree right in the way. Sit start.

Boulder 5m
V5 #3 crimp ... mantle
Boulder 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.

Boulder 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.

Boulder 4m
V4 #6

This problem was destroyed by the Canberra fires of 2003.

Boulder 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.

Boulder 5m
V1 #8

Seems to go up the arete next to the #7 crack. Pretty easy for the grade.

Boulder 4m
V1 #9

Up a virtual curved chimney. Very easy terrain.

Boulder 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.

Boulder 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!

Boulder 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.

Boulder 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!)

Boulder 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.

Boulder 6m
V0 Squirm

Sit start in the left corner

FA: Andrew Cadogan-Cowper, 13 Jun 2020

Boulder 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

Boulder 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

Boulder 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

Boulder
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

Boulder

Try not to have a great fall. Stand start on the right side of the face and take the line of least resistance up.
