Around Orange.

pine rocks - not easy to find but decent slabby high ball (for me) bouldering on some form of volcanic rock. also some climbs, overhangs, wide cracks but no top anchors. pretty small crag overall. west facing, only afternoons in winter. right next door to the Cadia valley gold mine.

random little gully - same rock, not very high at all, not too far away from PR, have never climbed there but found it when searching once. interesting scallops and some jugs if i remember. overhanging in places. no anchors at top. 1200 m high, in a gully so not for winter.

basalt wall - up from federal falls on towac way. 4 m high, 10 m long. slightly overhanging. up high on canobolas, overhanging wall is SW facing so cold in winter. easy access. 10 m off road.

granite boulders at Macquarie woods - very coarse. only go here if you want to bleed.

federal falls and the walls - both on towac way. both have never done it for me. have heard rock at the falls is sh!t and the walls are slabs.

apparently there is a slab out at Ophir. have never seen it. if you are feeling adventurous, there are some cliffs of some description up Coombing Creek over off Mt Macquarie. Never been there so the 2 k walk upstream and dodging of farmers bullets may not be worth it.

i will put together a mud map with some directions. put co-ordinates no here. if anyone is ever out this way then PM me.
