If you have benefited from climbing infrastructure in NSW, please consider making a donation towards maintenance costs. The Sydney Rockclimbing Club Rebolting Fund finances the replacement of old bolts on existing climbs and the maintenance of other hardware such as fixed ropes and anchors. The SRC purchases hardware, such as bolts and glue, and distributes them to volunteer rebolters across the state of New South Wales. For more information, including donation details, visit https://sydneyrockies.org.au/rebolting/
Approach
Descent notes
Rap off
100m left from the lookout there is evidence of an old rappel area (2 studs). Suggest using one of the two large trees for a rappel down (60m).
Whilst climbing out of the cliff is possible a trad rack is required and rock quality, especially on the descent route, is mixed. If unsure, leave your rappel line fixed and be prepared to ascend it.
Ethic inherited from Illawarra and Shoalhaven
New area
Lots of bolts in this region. Most development has been done after the 1980s.
