A Direct line up the clean top faces between Barrier and Walk Over.

Start: from the right hand side of the light grey face about 10m right of Sandwich, or just left of the scramble to the base of Frontal.

1. Reach the handrail and traverse left to a tiny ledge just before the corner that overlooks Sandwich. Climb the steep crack above.

2. Climb the crack about 3m to the right, through a bulge in the red rock. Continue via a series of tricky moves up the outside of the pinnacle, climbing the final block to the left.

3. From the top of the block lying on the left of the crack of Barrier Pinnacle, reach height for a jug and pull-up leftwards into a shallow recess. Continue to the roof, then move left until the roof ends. An awkward pull-up leads to a stance above the roof.

4. Climb straight up, then diagonally left to a narrow ledge at the left end of the face.

5. Traverse 8m right along a rail, then climb up in line with the stance above with 3, through steep rock on in-cut holds. Continue past a ledge up short rock bands to the top.

Varied line to the top of the crag.

Head straight up and left into a small recess. Pull around this and up and left to the big ledge. Pull onto the upper tier and follow the line of least resistance up and left to the top.

1. [21] 30m

   Start up an undercling into two layback flakes. Continue up the face to the right of the wide crack and to the left of the orange rock. Once on the big ledge move to the gray face to the right of the chimney.

2. [19] 20m

   Up the grey face to the wide rail. Pull over roof on brown and black rock and the move right to Arête. Near top step left and scramble up to abseil tree.

"A frightening series of desperate pitches, technical and ridiculously strenuous." (MCSA guide 1978).

Start: From the left hand end of a flat slab of rock just right of the drip at Postern Cave.

1. Move up a vague recess for 3m. Traverse r3m right along the ledge and climb a corner to stance on the right side of a large detached flake.

2. Climb the square recess capped by a small overhang. Turn the overhang and continue up to a large ledge.

3. Almost immediately behind and 6m right of the easy recess used by Cameron's Frontal is a very steep brown face. Climb a small chimney, followed by an awkward move onto a ledge on the right, from where some pull ups followed by a rounded mantleshelf lands you on the Halfway Ledge. Walk 20m left to a beacon about 8m right of the Bollard pitch of Plumbline. This should be at the base of a slightly overhanging recess.

4. Climb the overhanging recess to a good rail. Strenuous moves to beneath a brown overhang, short move right past a jammed block then up to the ledge above. This ledge is the Plumbline traverse ledge under the overhang.

5. Above and slightly left is a handrail running under the overhang. This is formed by a slab about 1m thick under the overhang and clearly visible from below (on the opening ascent a large wooden wedge was placed about halfway along the traverse to protect the leader). Climb up to the handrail, using two pitons for aid. Hand traverse around the corner, then up to a cubbyhole. 2m higher is a stance.

6. Climb the chimney above and exit onto an obvious ledge with a large block on it.

7. Climb the face above, moving diagonally left and back right again. The pitch reaches the summit 4m left of Plumbline.

Pull up to a rail (#4 Camalot useful) and then up two narrow corners to a small roof. Pull through and then follow the right side of the arete until just before the top, where you step left and then top out.

Follows the break and vertical cracks up to, and through, the roof on the left of the crag.

Start as for Leaf Cycle, but branch off right just before the first fist sized rail. Head up and right break through the steep face, then up yellow rock to crank through the wide vertical crack splitting the top roof. Straight up to top.

Warning: just left of the last section of this crack is a large hollow sounding shield on the face (Marked with X on topo - probably best not to use it, and you do not need it).

What a gem!

1. Take the obvious right slanting break, then straight through to a big cubby with some grass/bushes. Take the obvious break through the overhang above and head am over easy/blocky ground to a comfortable stance next to a healthy bush at the base of a clean white face

2. Start about 3-4m right of the left edge of the wall and head straight up about 4m, then gently right to the top of that shield at the base of a blunt arete. Take the arete, then cross a small slab to a break through a steep finish. If you didn't enjoy this pitch may I suggest fly-fishing?

Just right of a hanging blunt nose is a rounded sheet on the wall- great chicken eating spot. Convince your feet up, then take the fault to the top of the crag. Great Pro.

An improbable looking line for the grade. The route takes a steep launch off the ground to the ledge, then a line series of thin moves to the top, punctuated by a large "Thank God" rest on top of a big flake (NOTE: the flake has since fallen off the face). Doesn't take gear larger than BD#0.75. Strong contender for the best line on the buttress so far.

Same start as route above, only taking the right fork. It shares a rest at the top of the flake. Exciting finish.

Takes a diagonal break passing the left side of the larger roof on the right side of the crag. Tricky move near the top.

Start about 10m left of the CC. Climb the recess, and swing left into some wild roofs. Continue up to the triangle-cut overhang, and turn it on the right.

Take the crack thru the stripes! Share a few moves with Euphrates at the bottom before breaking away and climbing the stripes.

A great, sustained route with a fantastically exposed 3rd pitch that requires a confident leader.

1. Start as for Home Ground Advantage, but head slightly left up the face to large boulder on next ledge. Go up the vague arete a few meters right of the yellow face. At the big ledge, move 2m right to belay below white rock, at wobbly boulder (which is on the left side of the ledge below the brown wall to the right).

2. From the block, head up the light grey rock for about 3m to gain a ledge, then step left to a vague recess. Follow this straight up to a square ledge under the roof at the base of the arête.

3. A great pitch. Exposed and pumpy. Move left and pull through a bulge, traverse back right to the airy arête. Head straight up and at a finger rail, move right to gain a vague groove, which leads to the next ledge.

4. Just left of the belay spot, there is a thin crack forming a flake about 2m up. Use this to gain a rail. Step right and up using a good pocket. From the ledge, head up and right to gain a wide corner. Follow this diagonally left to a small platform. Now continue up and slightly right until the top.

Start on good hold and move up the slab on beautiful pockets

A nice link-up, that potentially has some new climbing.

1. [21] Start up Last Tango but keep straight to join REM. Pull into the step, bottomless corner and up to the highest overlap and rail 1m right to a stance on a narrow ledge (Essentially the Wet Dreams pitch 2)

2. [21] Step left from the stance and through the break (shared with REM) but then head left and up to a rail. Traverse further left and then up to the next rail. Continue a little further left climb up a vague seam arcing to the left (and below the left end of the narrow roof a few meters higher). Climb up passing the roof on its left side to join The Cruise and follow this to the top.

1. [19] 20m

2. [21] 40m

Start: The prominent feature of the Cobblestones Gendarme is the huge overhang and chamber beneath it. The left end of the huge overhang drops a plumbline to Fountain Ledge where La Vida starts up the clean arete.

1. [18] 12m Use small vertical cracks slightly left of the arete to get established, then move onto the arete and head straight up to a ledge. Scramble 10m to the right to a big clean ledge with two knee-high blocks on it. At this point, you are looking up at a clean white wall just below and right of the chamber.

2. [21] 17m Step off the larger block onto the wall and make cruxy layaways to get to the horizontal crack that leads to the chamber. This is the "dassie ledge" used by Cobblestones. Head up and left on the steep headwall to reach a large ledge with a recess.

3. [19] 10m From the back of the recess move up and left to get through the overhang using the first notch. French Connection continues left to use the second notch. Holy Mackerel heads up the large crack in the back of the recess. Once established on the face above head up directly to the next ledge to belay here. The section above leads to the top of a free-standing pillar which is avoided. Walk left around the corner and into the gap behind the pillar to belay on the big chockstone.

4. [18] 8m Head up the clean arete on the left to a platform that is the top of the second free-standing pillar.

5. [20] 30m Step across onto the face to gain the block on the left. Head up and left on the steep white wall. Move left below the expanding flakes to avoid them. Move up to gain the steep grey face. Head slightly right and up to the top of the wall. NOTE: The original ascent climbed the expanding flakes at grade 22. This variation is not recommended due to the fact that gear and handholds are reliant on the creaking flakes.

Scramble to the top or traverse 100m left to the Magnetic Wall abseil station.
