I've been wondering about how good Cloggy is. Has anyone repeated any of the routes there recently? There seem to be a good mix (particuarly around the 10-15 department, and a few up to grade 22. Looks like a nice place for spring or autumn as it's west facing (above tortoise wall in the Victoria Range, uphill from Gilhams).
There is a pic of the cliff here but no route descriptions as yet. If you have the old (white cover) Vic Ranges guides you can find the routes in there. I don't believe there have been any new routes since circa 1980!

There are a few moderate (about grade 15) decent routes at Hollywood Bowl. That wasn't open when the last select Grampians guide was done and perhaps should be considered for inclusion?

The other good area that has some fun grade 17-18 climbing is Emu Rock. There is a good guide on-line now:

Will - I've heard there is a (supposedly) easy route on White Wall which is about 6 grades harder than stated in one section! Pete Mills & Ro Packer provided this feedback FYI. |
