Routes in Northern Territory for selected grade

Sit start. Push straight up.

Harder begginer climb with some reachy sections. Foot placement is important in a few sections to avoid swinging off the wall.

Good begginer climb with good practice for route finding and use of natural surfaces to make finishing easier.

Start in the chimney and follow the blue holds up. Around the panel with the orange line, move onto the face to a reachy finish.

Good holds the whole way up. Good body and feet position is essential if you can't muscle through.

Left side of slight overhang - Stand start, easy reach with walk off top out.

Just to the right of Salty, Salty 2 starts sitting under the overhang and walk off top out tucked into the right side of the overhang.

Right side of first concrete slab within the wall. stand start, careful when topping out, climb back down on reverse side.

Concrete Slab two along the cliff line, sit start using the concrete for an undercling and going up the left side of the slab exiting out on the left. Nice tubular hold just up and out from the slab.

Same slab as "If I die" sit start on the right side of slab, up and walk off top out on the right of the concrete slab. Watch for sketchy rock in the top out.

Rule 18 of zombieland - Limber up. This boulder is great to warm up on. Excellent from beginners to advanced.

Sit start

Start in the gully and straight up through the crack, go right under the top boulder and up again to top out.

Flawless face climbing, if a little run out. Half ropes highly recommended.

Start on boulder on right edge of face, once off the deck move left onto face and straight up into the large pocket dead center of wall. From there moving up and right to top out.

The crack to the right of FLASC. A fun well protected route with some interesting moves for the grade.

Low angle black slab on opposite side of creek from majority of other climbs. Standing below "Tree Hugger" look across the creek for large black slab, cross creek and make your way up through the scrub. Start's very delicately to first bolt, have your belayer spot you. Route follows a rising left leaning traverse on delicate holds. Some of the rock is average quality so care must be taken. Head straight up to last bolt. Runout between 4th and 6th bolt.

Alt start to School Teacher. Using overhung slants approx 5m right of normal start. Then up slab to school teacher finish. One move wonder, pumpy off the ground.

Done by redirecting a top rope using an alpine draw on old bolt to the left of deputy head. No discernible trad pro for the first move to make this mixed trad.

Fairly straight forward route. Up box boulders and exit onto slab. Straight up on slab with the smallest of nuts or just free-ball to the top and run it out.

Rap in as per "Everything must Trundle" - Dubbed Chomp my rope the FA pulled a flake off that chomped his rope. To the right of "EMT" when facing out from atop Lyell ledge you will find a nice foot deep ledge at head height, the start of this climb nestled in the shade of a tree. a very interesting technical climbed that had the FA moving left and right across the face going from ledge to ledge. tricky top out, don't pull on anything too hard.

Obvious Face on front of free bird pinnacle when looking from the access road. Reachy Crux begins at the vertical crack. Easy but committing overhang leads to pleasant exposure before top out. Carrot bolts lower off. Sling left on top.

The dominant line up the front wall of this pillar. Start up vertical crack to roof, traverse right and out from under roof using horizontal crack. Finish up flaring crack on RHS of pinnacle. Some loose rock on this one! 2BB

Start as for UN1, step left to BR then straight up middle of wall easily to a very satisfying and well protected technical finish. Excellent exposure, be sure to take some very small nuts for good measure. 2BR, 2BB

Start as for BD, then through roof using a combination of roots and fistjams. Finish up wall to the right of BD.

Starts nicely below large crack to the left of STE. Rapidly turns into a desperate, awkward squirming horror story.

The disgusting looking off width crack to the right of Nice Crack

Run out finish.

1BR not much else reliable for pro. Everything looks like it will break.

An outstanding and very engaging climb on the back side of the pillar. Climb the right side to until you can tenuously bridge the gap between. Follow the steep crack up to the roof, then traverse right under the roof to ledge. Finish easily up from here. Watch rope drag

Up the off width crack, use the face as required. Through the roof to the Right, avoiding the rock behind will add a few grades to the climb. Sparse gear down low.

Follow the zig zag crack through the roof. Crux is getting onto the platform below the roof. Jugs galore above the roof inspires confidence for the exposed move.

Follow the L hand crack up. At about 20m it becomes a scramble to the top so bring your partner up and walk the rest.

The line of awesome power 5m right of BB, which had repulsed revolted at least two aspirants before finally succumbing. Take a couple of big cams.

Nice direct finish to rambler. Up the initial unprotected overhang and straight up through the top overhang. Done in Hiking boots originally.

Start at the shallow corner to rooflet, step right then up, crossing DP then finishing straight up through the face, to the big fig tree to top out at the right of Don’t Panic. Belay and rappel off the fig tree.

Heading Past Ode and DP (Don't Panic) to the left you will see a distinctive wall that starts with a smooth orange rock and changes to a sea of chicken heads at around 4m Line traveling up the middle of the face.

Beautiful and obvious line left of WD. Start in the square cut corner at ground level, up onto the ledge and follow the crack up until under the roof. Intimidating and exposed exit moves under the roof.

Start up Whipping Boy, to small ledge, traverse from here completely across ëíTestosterone wallî, taking the line of least resistance. Finish up the end of Mr. Giggles.

Really fun climb just right of MAC is a face with a fig tree (how unusual!). Start in layback crack left of R1, step right and through small stepped roof onto face past fig tree. Finish up crack system and over another small rooflet. The summit is a very popular urination point for the local wallaby population.

I don’t know anyone who has tried this prehistoric nightmare, but Steve assured me it has been climbed. The large trench that is half strangled by a fig tree to the right of the the GAG wall.

Vertical crack line just to the right of TT’s tiny roof. Follow crack straight up 11m to ledge, scramble up small chimney to finish. Quite a good climb really, that often gets bypassed.

Begin on ledge 5m right of ground force. Mantelshelf to small ledge then up lovely left leaning orange face. Easy jugs to belay near not quite shady enough figtree.

Named after the huge snake anchor required at the top due to loose rocks. Start on thin crack right of waterfall, head up and traverse left following path of least resistance. Then go straight up to the top of the pillar above waterfall.

Crack line 5 m right of No Mans Land. Tricky start on face below beginning of crack, follow crack up to ledge. Crack starts thin and gets wider and easier with height.

Best warm up and beginner climb, 3 carrots and one br.

Up corner crack with interesting holds, follow under roof until you can pull though all on right and onto the large crack to top out.

Up all flakes and top out

The obvious off width crack on the Left side of the top pool (before the 2 small ones leading to Cro Magnon). You will need to pack raft gear to access small belay ledge above water line. Climbing is fun and secure, #5 cam recommended to get through the roof.

This is the bail line for False Summits, rather then heading through overhang/crack you can bail to R up inbetween pillar and main wall.

Top Rope in-between the two trad routes

Start 2m right of Mrs Hobson and follow obvious left leaning crack up to small roof to top out. Be careful of lose rocks, most should have been cleared.

Up the crack with the fist jamming second half. Be wary of loose block at top.

A long traverse across the face of Depot Creek original. We did this in 7 pitches to reduce drag however definitely could be done in less.

Some loose rock, great right tending line, past fig tree on face.

First pitch about grade 11, up to nice clean corner at 15. Obvious easy line left of Supply line to ledge. Second pitch is obvious orange corner.

Pitch 1: Starting at a small corner crack, follow until you reach a large belay ledge. Pitch 2: Follow the crack up and into a very thin corner.

Just to the right of the center of shadey wall. Behind the corner and a tree filled with green ants nests. Climb straight up face and crack to fig. Rap off fig.

Up short arete to ledge, then through 'dark' face first trending left then back to the right until big horizontal break is reached. Escape right onto another big ledge. From there up corner crack then traverse left to fig tree.

Wall immediately left of CC. Pick your way delicately up. Small cams and wires help, as do double ropes. Finish up the crack directly below the abseil tree. Great climb.

Climb starts 3m left of BAB and climbs left edge of that face past (not through!!) large roof to small tree, traverse left under tree to ledge on the nose of the roof. Finish at the fig tree. Some fragile “dinner plates” at the top, beware. Second by tradition does a chin up off the nose!!!

Start up V shaped corner just right of W. Follow obvious line, with delicate protection at 2/3 height. Under-rated and underclimbed!

Takes the upper left leaning crack in the RHS of the Enclosure, up and onto the ledge, right and up through the crack in the roof. Different moves, better protection, same finish… but distinctly easier than TMGTH.

On the block immediately right of the enclosure. Thin crack goes straight up the block. Fairly easy up crack to large horizontal and marginal large SLCD. Traverse left and up with pretty committing move. Mantle exit to ledge.

Harder than it looks!!! Start at slabby face near rocky gully, climb face through a dicky mantle and a series of small overhanging sections. Finish up arete.

A bushwalk start, leads to line directly up the orange wall to the right of JP through a series of horizontal breaks. Named for the 2 fixed cams left there (they have been subsequently removed). Not technically difficult, but pumpy and pretty solid for the grade

Up short finger crack/ left facing flack.

Obvious fist crack from block just out of water. Few off width moves at the top.

Best route on the cookie block.

Layback/crack up the downstream corner of the Cookie Pillar.

Start 7m above water on crack on left (looking at wall). Up crack to top.

Start 7m above the water. Up crack to right of SLC. Head left to new crack half way up.

Up 4m, right around bottom of bulge, up crack system.

2m left of SP.

As the name suggests, up the back of the boulder using no hands (no cheeky elbows either) two very deep pistol squats on little ledges.

Start near tree, traverse tip to tip with a mantle topout

Lay back up the crack

Stand start, Face to bottom of crack than left

Easy up crack

Start 2 hands on jug and climb

Starts 1m R of SM at large scar on rock. Delicate moves past 2 BR, horizontal seam, then another BR. Belay as for SM

The pumpy crack on the right end of the face, with a small arete just to its right.

L most climb on wall. Not really worth the effort. One BR.

Variant start (13) avoid corner, and ascends ramp to the R, to join the line.

Start as for trackside traverse but go straight up.
