<header id="562" name="Mt Wellington" rock="Sandstone and dolerite" walk="0min to 30min" sun="Mixed sun and shade" intro="Mt Wellington offers some good opportunities for bouldering. Its a bit scattered, and dolerite is an acquired taste for bouldering. But there are lots of problems, particularly moderates with easy access for after work climbing." access="From the centre of Hobart drive up Davey Street, which becomes Huon Road, for 9.6km. Just before Fern Tree a well sign posted road (Pillinger Drive) leads off sharply to the right and winds up the mountain. Follow this for 4.2km to reach the Springs. Another 2.5km further on is a small parking bay on the left hand side of the road, which is the parking area for the Organ Pipes. To reach Lost World continue up past the parking area for a few more kilometres to a big leftwards bend in the road (9.1 km from the turn off). Keep going up the road to reach the Summit. The areas are described in the order you reach them up Pinnacle Rd."/>

<text class="heading1" id="628">Rocky Whelan's Cave</text>
<text class="intro" id="629">Rocky Whelan's Cave bouldering is steep and juggy which makes for fun. <br/>The rock is generally compact with iron rich veins that makes edges strong enough to huck on. The problems here have been finished at prominent ‘send’ jugs below the top due to the major task of cleaning the top. There remain plenty of new problems, variations and eliminates, lip traverse anyone?<br/><br/>Climbs are sent by cutting feet loose while on the send jugs, it is suggested that you then down climb until you feel comfortable jumping off. <br/>The cave faces North and remains dry in all but the worst of conditions.<br/><br/>The cave has ‘historical significance’ at least to one passer-by, who also mentioned the painted circles appeared after a documentary was filmed at the cave. So if you don’t mind bouldering at the haunt of a murderous bush ranger and more recently lovers, this is the place for you.<br/><br/>Drive up the pinnacle road approximately 2km. Park in the parking bay 10m past the end of the track. Walk up the track until you see the Rocky Whelan Cave sign, approx. 3 min.</text>

Alternatively, park at the Springs gravel carpark head towards the lookout using the northern loop of the lookout track. At the last gravel patch before the lookout the observant climber will notice a small cairn that marks the start of a track running along the top of the ridge, follow this track for several hundred metres when this track turns towards the mountain it branches. Take the branch and follow this to Lilo and Two mat boulders. These boulders are hard to see from the ridge track until you are within about 10 metres.</text>

They have barely been touched to date, but there is a large amount of potential here. The bad landings and the walk put people off, but with a bit of vision there will be some excellent problems done here. The quickest and easiest way to get there is to follow the yellow dot track down to the top of the cliff, then take the red dot track down around the northern edge of the cliffs and down into the amphitheater. It takes about 15 minutes.</text>

The Gold Coast faces North and is warm on a sunny day and is about 25 mins from the car to the boulders. The boulders range from about 3-7m in height with the landings being a spread of good to evil. The problems range from mini-trad routes to serious highballs and are mostly just under or over vertical.</text>
