I went out there on tuesday to have a look as a plan B after my ski partners bindings fell off at Illawong. The ice looked pretty thin around the elephant and grey buttress A couple of lines would definitely go with a bit of rock and fresh tracks looked like a few people had been out there giving it a crack. probably on the weekend prior.
If you picked a good line on the amphitheatre ice you might get 2 sections with 3 metres of vertical ice each with 20 metres of snow plodding in between.
Ignoring my slightly dismissive tone (it's just that I think skiing is more fun at the moment) and take a look at some
photos that I took to decide yourself
