  7. Re: Climbing areas suitable with a 4 yr old

    How mobile and independent are they?  Sphinx rock, rest of the mountain less so. Sand River is ok, some of the walks might be a bit too long. Kempton is good as far as ok walk in and nice and flat around the climbing, but you've got to keep kids away from underneath climbing because of so much loose rock. Waverly

    Here's a new one on the little crag before Sphinx Rock, the 'Right hand side' as it's called in the guide. Many thanks to Simon Young who bolted it and let us try it. Morphine 24 5m The furthest right line. A sequence of powerful moves past two U-bolts to a DBB. Finish matched on the top of the wall. Sam Peyr

  10. Cathedral Rock to the Trident 

    Cathedral Rock where the traverse begins. The occasional set wave would completely cover the bridge across to Cathedral Rock. Just because it's calm at Cathedral Rock, doesn't mean it'll be calm around the corner. Especially if there is a S swell.  DJI_20240916234314_0129_D copy.jpg DSC05369.jpg Image 2 - Access track
