Hi Chris,
If you only take a sports rack, and are onsighting 18 the only place you would be able to any decent amount of lead climbing would be Hillwood in the north of the state. There would probably be 10 to 20 good sports routes in the 14 to 19 range there.
Unfortunatly there is almost nothing else in the rest of the state.
I know space is tight on road trips, but I would really recommend that you bring one set of nuts, and whatever small set of cams / hexs you think you can justify. This will allow you access to the vast amount of excellent trad climbing in Cataract Gorge (centre of Launceston), and the trad climbing at Lassies Wall / Whitewater Wall area at Freycinet.
In particular Freycinet has absolutly stunning trad climbing in the 10 to 17 range on featured granite next to the ocean. Really worth checking out. You will probably go there even if just for the scenery. If you dont have a trad rack I think you will be kicking yourself. |
