Wombat, the climbs were put up by a guy named Aidan (an ex goulburnian) and another guy whose name ive forgotten who lives south of Goulburn in Bungendore. If you really want to get the lowdown on the climbs and the bouldering problems drop into the the Lake George Hotel in Gibraltar st Bungendore and speak to the chef. Hes also got an awesome woodie..

The crag is named pejar (for obvious reasons) and there are 3 climbs i think. The arete is a high teen maybe 18/19, theres a blank slab to its left which is about a 23 and around and down to the right of these theres another climb whihc is about 21 i think.

Other than that there is bouldering all around it.

Also it was all bolted in the last 5 years (dont quote me) and ive been out there once 4 months ago.

Cheers

Excellent! Thanks for the info GriZZly.

What were the Blackberries like then. They seem to have gone psycho in the last couple of months.

I'll go and chat to the climbing chef next time I head down to Black Range.

Yeh they were pretty bad back then too. Its a nice spot if you need to do some climbing and youre based out of goulburn.

If it's anything like the viney weeds in my backyard, they went absolutely sick after the august/september rains and the following hot weather. I bet they're getting horrible, dry and spikey now though.
