I didn't mean it to be that hard to guess, just an old favourite you know this climb is easier than most of the Pierces Pass crimpmeisterings though you will get to workout your rack of RPs & DMMs....the cliff is right so far but not the climb.

Bastion Buttress?

Just to backtrack a little - my latest guess for Mikes Frenchmans Cap route is Surf Slab... Right?

Elijah is correct.
Good work M9, would have been P6 as per the original guide but is P3 as we did it in 2000 when the pic was taken. Here is its matching photo taken by me looking down.

Thanks for the confirmation jrc.
Hmm. I don't have any half-ok digital photos of climbing to hand, so the best I can do is post a poor substitute instead, especially compared to the magic 'bungles shot by jrc.
Here is a (poor quality) phone-photo of a rock outcrop that I went looking for on a bike trip with a mate not long ago, as reconnaissance for future climbing trips there.
Name the outcrop / location...

it's a semi guess but it looks a bit like the granite outcrop behind (east of) Michelago

>Michelago
(That is near Canberra right?)
... sorry, wrong State.

That looks like the back of Arapilies? Campbells kingdom etc.

Correct State.
Wrong name / location.

Somewhere out in the You Yangs?
|

You Yangs; western Vic.
Nope. Wrong half.

cathedrals ??

No; but you are getting warmer, ie heading in the right direction, in the right half of Vic.
Hmm. Perhaps it is more obscure than I thought, ... but this reflects my preference in climbing styles, locations?
A hint:
Has recorded routes*, up to 150+ metres in length.
(*Not a lot though).

Getting cooler now.
150m length routes at Ben Cairn?
I think not.
Heh, heh, heh.
