I have just been up to Mt Alexander south of bendigo and I have found a new route it near langs look out, it's a right angle corner crack with a ripped side it's about 6 meters and granite. It's called Back, Crack and...! about a 9 or 10! There is heaps more to find up there. Tones of good bouldering routes and some possible top rope and lead climbs nothing over 10 meters tho. Be care on the rock to the granite flakes and falls off easy as.

Nicely done Knuddy keep it up, as for MM comments, rumour has it there are a few bolted lines he's put out with no ascents yet???? as the saying goes "A tick in the guide book is worth more than two unfinished projects"....okay I made that up but ya get the idea?

Hey has someone made it clear to Nuddy that he needs to go back with a hammer and knock off any holds he didn't use? In case someone finds a gr 7 variant.
