<guide version="3"><header id="28" name="Adamsfield" walk="5 min" rock="Conglomerate" acknowledgement="Thanks to Garry Phillips and Roger Parkyn for this information." intro="As well as having sport climbing, Adamsfield also has a little bouldering, with potential for more. Adamsfield is about 2 hours from Hobart. There are lots of established problems of all difficulties, but no one has got around to recording most of them yet. " access="The Adamsfield cliffs are situated at Grid reference 715430 on the Wedge 1:100 000 map at the northern end of the Ragged Range, about 35 km past Maydena. Once you have driven past Maydena, continue into the National Park along the Gordon River road, driving past the Scotts peak dam turn off (Frodshams Pass). About 5 km on from here, the road will be heading downhill. After passing several minor offshoots, a sign indicates "Clear Hill Road", follow this. Turn right down the road and drive for 16 km (from the Gordon Road) until a large boulder sticks out on the right, nearly overhanging the road (this is the climb Roadkill). If you haven't been here before look out for this boulder as it is easy to miss and is the best way to locate the area. Only 50 metres on from this it is possible to park on the left, opposite a slimy looking bank. Walk up this bank with a little difficulty, then head up to the right through bracken and bushes for about 100 metres to the large boulder. This boulder is known as The High Wire."/><image src="AdamsfieldAdamsfield_Mud_Map2.jpg" width="800" id="3"/><text class="heading2" id="5">The High Wire
