Routes in Ngā Kohatu Whakarakaraka o Tamatea Pōkai Whenua / The Port Hills for selected grade

Start as for Super Glue at the extreme left side of the cave. Traverse right past 3 bolts, then head straight up via big moves to reach the jug rail. Follow this right to the Super Glue anchors.

Start as for Attack Mode but instead of angling left to the pockets after the initial boulder problem, angle right to the Iceman anchor, skirting to the left side of the roof. May also be started from the right to avoid Attack Mode’s often wet start.

Start as for Rowdy Ronnie Piper, but at the ledge head left, skirting around the left side of the roof, to finish at the Iceman anchor.

Start as for ‘XX’, after staple 3 step L into a short black groove, go up the groove & across the slab to the roof below the central groove, hard moves into & out of the groove to land on a ledge with an old lower off.

Start immediately right of Ground Zero, with a staple for the first bolt. Follow a line of FHs up a series of ledges to reach a hanging scoop. Surmount the morpho crux and continue easily to the Ground Zero anchor.

Left sit-start into top of Early Bird.

SS on the slopey lip with a good crimp rail for the right hand. Follow the runnel to the arete on slopers and small crimps.

Sit start with left hand on crimp (L-shaped hold) and right hand on the side pull in the small break/crack. Crimp hard and find the balance to reach up to one of the half-decent holds up high.

Small prow below Space Invaders. Start low on the wide pinch/crimp and rad undercling, one move to the top.

SS with left hand on the small slopper and right hand on the undercling. Use the good right foot and small edge for left foot, stand up and throw left hand up to the decent slopper. Easier finish moves to top out.

Destroyed during the earthquakes.

Hard climbing through the big roof to the third bolt over the lip. Shares the last bolt of Off The Shelf and the same anchor.

Start as for Speight’s Race, clipping its first bolt. Upon reaching the roof, lean out left and clip, then surmount the prow, trending left to the next bolt. Easier but balancey climbing past 2 more bolts leads to the anchor.

Start down by the nettles below a large roof resembling an inverted staircase. Move easily up to clip the first and second bolts to the more strenuous, technical climbing and a good hold at the third bolt. Weave your way around on good holds past the next two bolts to exit through an obvious notch. Five bolts. Two bolt anchor with chains above and to the left.

A direct start with two extra bolts, plus one from Nor West Arch.

Starts directly in front of the large boulder. Straightforward moves on good holds past the first bolt, followed by long reaches on small crimps and/or a dyno through the overhang. Continue over the lip where the third bolt intersects with Nor West Arch. Finish up the arête above. Six bolts, with an optional small cam placement between fourth and fifth.

Above an overgrown block is this route up a steeply overhanging wall. Simon Middlemass set it up, but Jeff did it not realising it was a first ascent.

Close to YG but good independent climbing. Carefully pull over the roof above the track on funky holds. Clip the 2nd bolt of YG then crimp up the groove on its right. Then there are three more bolts and larger holds

Climb the Butcher to the 4th bolt then link into Wall Street for its bulge crux.

The last route through the roof. A short capped corner gives access to the roof. Go straight over the top bulge, clipping if you have strength to burn. Once at the headwall bolt traverse off directly right to the last move and anchors of Weet-bix Kids

Start 1½ metres right in a short corner. Hard moves onto a ledge, then shuffle left and clip the second bolt. Straight up the wall with a series of dynamic moves to finish on a ledge above and right of the Liposuction anchors at a single lowering bolt at the back of the ledge.

Start as for Keepless at DBB on the Party Ledge. Climb slab up to pedestal then with difficulty up shallow groove up to big ledge before the top. Clip bolt then move out right onto face to top out with a couple of big moves.

Start up Reincarnation. After the big move, go left and then finish up Birth Canal.

Technical stemming up the main corner with a big move and then some spicy moves on crimps at the top. At the last bolt, either continue straight up or mantle onto the ledge to the right. Both recommended.

Can be started at either the Party Ledge on the left side or the Half Height Ledge on the right side. Climb the arête deviating to use the pedestal ledge on Hung Drawn and Quartered then moving back on to the arête, climbing mostly on the left side, to a crux at the top before reaching the ledge at the top of Reincarnation. Fantastic exposure.

Start at DBB on Half Height Ledge on the right side of The Keep. Climb the slab to the left up onto the pedestal. Step left onto the arête and clip the next bolt then move right into the groove, then follow 2 bolts to beneath the big roof. Finish by climbing up onto the ledge to the right of big roof and then to DBB on the top. Watch for sharp edge on ledge when lowering. It has claimed one rope already. Some work has now been done to dull the edge.

Start as for Falling Buttress at DBB. Climb slab to the left then traverse right out above roof. Climb line of bolts up the groove in the middle of the face, finishing with a mantle onto a ledge right of the big roof.

Start under the first bolt, pull up onto the face, then climb up underneath the small roof. Pull over the roof and climb straight up to the anchor.

The obvious, left facing corner near the left end of Flax Wall, featuring some of the best rock at Farm Park. Technical stemming leads up and over the roof to bigger holds, just as the pump clock starts to run out.

Sit start underneath the roof on jugs. Work your way up and finish as for ‘Sleeker than a Celica’

Start as for 'Drop the Clutch' in the big holes and traverse the sloper ledge but at halfway take the easy way out up to a rectangular jug. From here traverse leftwards on crimps on the lip before finishing up ‘Roland’s Warm-Up’

Sit start in the holes. Traverse rightwards underneath the roof on the sloping ledge. Dyno from the jugs and hold the swing or perform some magic to arrive at the huge finishing jug. Drop off here.

It's what you came for. Sit start in the depths of the cave on two good holds. Ride the ledge all the way along until you can head up the arete.

Sit start with your toes at the back of the cave. Perform knee-bar wizardry to surmount the lip and crimp to glory.

SS on the good right hand side pull and the bad slopper on the left face, tiptoeing on small feet. Big left-hand move to a slopper on the arete then mantle finish.

Start as per 'Mistakes of Cowardice' but exit left onto the slab after the crux move to the arete.

Start as for 'Yellow Desert Stream' then traverse left all the way to the end on the obvious line of bad slopers, eliminating the lip the entire way.

SS left hand side pull and right hand on the slopey arete. Good edge for left foot and right heel around the corner. Throw left or right hand up to reach the starting slopey crimp of 'Gasolina'.

SS on the squared hold and break on the arete then throw right hand up to join ‘Bandidos Low’.

Very beautiful route, powerful climbing with almost every kind of move and hold imaginable. Sustained except for the sit-down ledge at halfway.

Bouldery moves through the overhang to the right of Carbon Neutral. Above the roof, carry on up the arête.

Fierce crimping up the face of the overhanging pillar shaped wall. Small incuts past the first bolt to a rest out left and a trad placement, then up three more bolts on the headwall.

Climb Ground Effect to the second bolt, then join Victim of Ravishment to finish. Possibly the hardest line on the wall, though probably not harder than Raj or Ground Effect by a full grade.

Start between Minimal Disturbance and Funication, in the middle of the main part of the Year Right Wall. Climb the surprisingly technical slab, then surmount the roof following the v-groove. Execute a mantle and then ramble to the top, linking into the last two bolts of Funication.

At the left hand end of The Thunderdome, goes directly up through the groove in the roof to the left of Gone Bimbo.

Climb the standard version of Gone Bimbo, but at the first permadraw on the traverse, instead of continuing right go straight through the roof on good holds to finish at a separate anchor. Using the original (low) beta to get established on the traverse gets you 26 points, whilst the new (high) beta only warrants 25.

Climb the first 3 bolts of Powerless Creatures, then head right, clipping the first bolt of Scud Muscles, to link into Jug Jockey at its crux. Combines the best parts of both routes.

Climb past the first 3 bolts of the Stu Allen Route / Location…, then traverse right at the ledge to join Bridging Over Lyttelton.

Power moves through a steep overhang, then mantle into bulge.

Start low on the good hold used for Cramp (higher than Cramp's undercling start). Make a big move left to join Sloper Groper, then continue left until you can join Mr Miyagi and finish as for this problem.
