straight up the slab wall nice mantle to topout

Stand start at the obvious platform and go up and over. An easy breezy warmup which doubles as the downclimb for those less keen on jumping into the sand directly

A treat for beginner slab enthusiasts. Start far right and migrate left using FEET ONLY as if you were trying to crush the fingers of those on Join the Duck Side

Lovely traverse of the boulder at low level from left to right and right to left if you like. Prob not a first ascent

avoiding large holds off two crimpers to Pocket and Jugs - sit down start

Right hand end of the boulder up as you will

Easy traverse in from left, over water then up the left-hand side on good holds and easing angle to mantle top out - Easy fun but if you fall off you get turned into a sprat by the magical waters of Glenbrook Creek.

Sit start on two crimps and walk up the slab

Start matching a crimp go up and to the left

Start on ledge and walk up the slab. Top out

Slab walk up.

Small line up obvious features on the left side of the downside of Crèche boulder.

How do I delete this route???

20m rt of BME around the corner. Route used to get to the summit of pagoda, bolted on lead originally with coach screws, re-bolted with glue-ins later.
