A good first move for beginners to the world of Sit Starts

A powerful problem requiring some body contortions and a committing left hand!

Sit start under the corner of the featured wall and the overhang with a left foot up high. Some solid moves up the arete, topping out via the overhang.

Finish by walking off the right most section of the problem after working through two challenging crux's

A pleasure at any time of the day!

On the first wall you walk past, about 3m before the first corner. Up on sharp crimps before moving right to good ramp and up. Nice.

Corner crack avoiding the walls.

Left arete of high front face on its left side, moving leftwards at top to finish. Great.

Not many Sydney climbs can claim to be fully enclosed, but if you want sub-meter chimney in the semi-underworld this has it all.

Start: Behind the face climbs, or walk down from above.

Compress into it at any number of places, with or without petrophilic flora and overhangs, to your personal taste.

Same arete, but climb it on the right side.

About 8m left of LO there's a slab in the corner with a rail running across is. Traverse this right to left then climb arete.

Grab the rail of LIAS and move straight up the face. Good.

Just right of WdiPaM? The steep, short, crimpy wall. Nothing is known about this route except that it has a single belay bolt above it and that it's tough!

Nothing is known about the original line here. It has been rebolted in the same way as the original. Start about 2.5m left of the first bolt. Using side pull, move up to jugs and then right to 1st bolt. Up and over lip using small, hidden chipped holds (part of the original line).

Corner crack, exiting via wall to left, or clean out the leaf litter and go Over The Top. Gritty either way.

No doubt done before.

Start on the low rail as for Somme climb, traverse right through the shallow roof of Mini Sub to finish on the obvious iron ore horn on the arête.

Start about 4m right of SC at obvious scoop. No using the tree to start! Up and over, left at last bolt for slopey finish.

Up cave to full body rest on sandy ledge, turn out to jam crack, then big moves up the lichen layback. Beware the chockstone that goes "boomp" and any other loose bits.

Left most route on final poxy/seamed face. Follow flake then then right to seamed face. Finish left at last bolt, using face to left for feet.

Middle route on final poxy face. Jump to pod, then up, right to rest, and rightwards at final bolt. Hard crux sequence if you're short!

Right most route on final poxy face.

A sketchy Traverse about 5 meters long, make sure you have a buddy to spot you. The rock is super crumbly so place your feet and hands wisely.

Start with hands on large moss covered feature far left. Traverse across with feet underneath, climb either into cave or go over the top. From there there is a solid ledge sticking out of the outside of the cave which can be used as either a foot hold climbing back down or a solid hand hold. Continue until you can no longer climb.
