Flora and Fauna: Nesting birds

Hell's Gate cliffs are important nesting sites for a number of birds, including vulnerable species that face a number of threats in the surrounding area. Please check on the local Whatsapp groups for the latest sightings or restrictions and if you come across a nest on your climb try and bail off well before reaching, to avoid disturbing nesting animals and potentially causing active nests to be abandoned.

설명

This route begins approximately 91 m left of the prominent overhanging area. It is easy to find for at this particular section the wall is less steep with a broken area some 46 m up from the ground. The route starts 12 m right of 'Caiaphas' at the base of a series of cracks

  1. 30 m Up cracks and trend leftward for approx 10m mounting a series of ledges. Move up towards a bulge and take an obvious traverse line leading off right below it. Continue along traverse for 12 m to an arete. Tension around this (peg in place with a 6foot cordalette), with precarious but exciting moves. Place small gear in a crack to protect your second. Continue onward rightwards for approx 6m with tricky moves up to a good platform and belay. (VS)

  2. 18m Move up leftward off the belay, traversing for approx 9m to a large obvious ledge. Gain groove up on right by way of a short steep wall, and climb groove for 9m threading your way among loose chock stones to a broken ledge. Possibly best to belay from the top of groove rather than in the broken corner above.

  3. 18 m Climb crack with questionable rock above for 6 m then step carefully right below a large block system along sloping shelf. Descend 3 m onto large ledge with tree.

  4. 37 m From ledge head up to follow obvious crack / corner system above. The rock is not great but decent placements can be found with hexes and nuts. At the top of the crack step left and make a couple of steep moves to gain a series of ledges that allow you to gain a ramp that will take you easily to the top
