Re: New Crag at Fortescue Bay
The top down approach to cleaning whilst unpleasant was definitely warranted. A light tap on a fridge sized rock sent it hurtling down. It's pretty safe now thankfully! And no awful top-outs into scrub.Mt Amos

Circus Dreams 25 Flinders Island, Mt Strzelecki, Ball Rock. Just 10 m right of Arctic Zephyr 24. It's a fully bolted sport climb and it is conceivable to take a sport rack up Mt Strzelecki, climb Into the Labyrinth 24 on the Main Face, then traverse over to Ball Rock and climb Circus Dreams for a great day outRe: De Gaulles Direct
I feel it is worth my contributing to this debate. The Tyndalls is a unique place with very few traditional lines (that are very dirty) available. The rock … as bolts/pitons represent permanent defacement of the rock. For example, it probably is not logical to insist that when someone solos a clean trad route, allRe: Mt Oakleigh skyline traverse
of the first pillar. Some spectacular climbing on reasonably sound rock, the crux pitches of similar standard to Ben Lomond jam cracks. We rapped of this pillar and climbed the next which had some nasty loose rock and then were unable to rap of the side of choice due to a completely flat top with no anchors. We ended upRe: DBB 1st pitch Nefertiti, Organ Pipes

If nuts are coming off its one thing (from the hanger not sitting flush with the rock) ; but for people to be able to slideRe: New Routes
A new route on Bruny. The Bruny Stack The Stack, rearing out of the sea and topped by a coronet of blocks, is a spectacular finger of rock, about 45m high … and storm waves and to the quality of some of the rock. A helmet is strongly recommended. Start in the centre of the north face, taking the middle lineRe: Time for Star Wars to end
I think it's a great idea too. You could always use language too to describe the climb - 'The perfect rock climb' or 'The classic of the crag'. By the way - all the climbs on the Alum Cliffs are 3 star routes...dg4.jpeg
The northern side of Cape Surville offers a reasonably extended section of dolerite climbing above water. The rock is also dolerite on the southern side, but the coast is pockmarked with several very dramatically imposing caves.
