Defintely shorter to cut through Kangaroo Valley after travelling up the Hume. Unfortunately the road is slow through this finally section climbing in and out of the valleys and down into Nowra...

Heh, short routes become boulder problems.

Or boulders become routes :) Wheel of Life probably has more moves than most of the "climbs" at Nowra and the glen for that matter :)

Phlegm and Farts grade 21, 5 m Tenneriffe - Described in VCC Eastern Victoria Guide as short and not very enjoyable.

How about Cheesy Nob Licker 22 on Little Grahams boulder, 3 moves, 3 metres, may even be shorter, can be done in two moves!!!!

Melb to Nowra travel time will be 8-9hrs...easy up the Hume to Mossvale, then ~50kms of bends.

>Cheesy Nob Licker ....3 moves, 3 metres....can be done in two moves!!!!

Nah its 5-6m: a dyno/slap then about 5 moves, or can be reduced to 3 dynos... only video evidence would convince me of 2 moves!

It is a typo - The Antagonist is 12m

Perhaps Dope Man at VD Land,

or some Beckworth metre measured climbs...
