Ascensioni in New South Wales and ACT da Brian Cork

Lived up to the hype. Classic.

Some surprisingly tricky route finding due to the number of alternatives and a bit of loose rock but still an amazing line. A good intro to how tricky the gradings and route finding can be in the Bungles.

Fun. Totally different climbing than Cornerstone. Quite runout at times.

Climbed the original first four pitches which were mossy, loose and scary only to end up on a ledge with goat shit on it. It turns out they come in from the big ledge system to the left. We bailed off a tree from there as we wasted too much time finding the start of the route and climbing the first few pitches. I have changed the route description to traverse in on the ledge as the upper pitches look interesting but haven't climbed in that way yet. Please update this description if you finish this route before me.

An excellent adventure. A mix of amazing rock and tricky route finding with a few sections of dodgy rock to add spice.

Really fun. It must have been so cool for the climbers in the 30's when they unlocked that convoluted route to the summit.

Not as scary as it looks.

Bizarre, long move off a crazy hold.

Excellent for the grade.

An awesome way of getting to the bottom of the gorge. The chains and bolts seem fine. Another group walked down at the same time and were about half an hour quicker than us rappelling but we had way more fun.

Climbed the ridge again after 20 years. Still just as intimidating, chossy, vegetated, scary and classic as I remembered. It is as close as you can get to alpine climbing in NNSW. A great adventure for those who appreciate the opposite of sport climbing.

Edgy.

Climbs a lot better than it looks. Love the twin cracks up high.

Fun Flake. Needs big cams. If you feel like caving you can do a second pitch through the cave above.

The last move had me pondering.

Nice to find this crag had been overlooked...

Great location and exposure for a climb of this grade.

Funky chimney that leads to these routes

Climbed it and then paddled a kayak over it a few months later. How often can you do that?

Engaging. Better pro and nicer rock than 'salt'. Two ropes are a good idea for minimising drag and protecting the seconder.

Old school feel. Tricky route finding and was a bit sketchy above the first bolt. Take care to protect the seconder as there are lots of small traverses.

The crack is awesome but it is a bit spicy at the top where the crack ends. The bolt is hidden on a ledge above the crack. One of the better crack routes in the area.

Some really nice moves through pockets but the bolts are hard to clip and the top is a bit sketch.

Nice to use some jams on sandstone.

Interesting stemming and jamming.

Tricky mantle and fun, juggy rooflet.

The arete moves felt harder than the roof...

The first few moves are nice but the top-out is becoming dirty and vegetated.

Cool side pull.
