Description
Slab
Slab
The large slab face that is seen as you drive towards the You Yangs from Little River.
Climbs are described left to right (facing cliff) and are divided into 2 main areas:
- Lower Tier: climbs from Furnace to I'll Lead
- Upper Tier (AKA Wave Wall): climbs from Old Bolt Ladder to The Occasional Mosquito
Make sure to bring bolt plates for all the carrots!
Access issues inherited from The You Yangs
Allowed
National Park. Parks Vic website (Oct 2014) says "[...] Bookings are required for groups. Individuals are not required to book, but should check with the Park Office to enquire about the availability of sites. [...]"
Approach
Gentle
From the Turntable carpark walk about 15 minutes along the East Walk until you see a large boulder on the left with a dyke (geological feature running horizontally through the middle of the boulder) and some old graffiti. If you come across the metal fence or find yourself beneath The Overlap climbing wall you've gone too far. From the boulder find the small track on the right and walk downhill until you reach the top of the slabs. There are 3 DBBs above the Lower Tier climbs, all are carrots.
Ethic inherited from The You Yangs
Well established
Mixed climbing with trad and some sports options, as well as bouldering. Bring hangar plates, as many climbs are equipped with carrot bolts.
