动植物: Nesting birds

Hell's Gate cliffs are important nesting sites for a number of birds, including vulnerable species that face a number of threats in the surrounding area. Please check on the local Whatsapp groups for the latest sightings or restrictions and if you come across a nest on your climb try and bail off well before reaching, to avoid disturbing nesting animals and potentially causing active nests to be abandoned.

描述

This is the tower deep in the south end of the gorge. It is not a popular climbing area, although a few routes have been recorded. People should be warned that buffalo are often found in this area.

Climbs have been done on the other buttresses here but insufficient information is available to give details. One was on the buttress right (round from the road) of El Barta, on the side facing it, and another was on the steep face on the opposite side of the buttress. The wall behind El Barta has also been climbed to the cave. High on the gorge wall opposite El Barta is a line of good rock about 30 m high where the easiest line, Very Difficult, was taken to reach the summit of the wall.

  1. 30 m At the back of the pinnacle broken vegetated rock leads to a steep chimney; climb up the broken rock to the left of the chimney line and then traverse diagonally right and up a groove to belay in a large cave at the foot of chimney.

  2. 22 m Climb the chimney first on the right wall of the cave then direct over chockstones to land in a large tree and move right to the summit (for descent the tree makes a good abseil point).
