I totally know this one, but I think I might leave it. In fact, I'll help.

This is totally obscure, but Hero would be dissapointed if I didn't have still more photos of ugly cracks. If you recognise the area and wade through the guide, it should stand out.

I'm not sure if it's actually downhill, but it's in the vicinity

I think that's the ironically named "Yuk" just off the trail to the left on the way up to the Horn.

Here is a thread that throws a latter light on the topic.
Jamming is the correct technical term. JamBing is the corrupted aussie folklore term that I prefer!

Don't have a lot of climbing photos in Oz, and only a couple in which I'm not goofing off, so this should be easy:

Is that Parralax again? Is that a Hawaiian shirt, if so this photo is outstanding!

Parallax indeed; has it already been posted? Anyway, I did indicate it would be easy. At least I get fashion points for Big Dog in the jungle...

Where is that? It looks awesome.

Parallax (24? Don't have my guide handy) was is pretty well in the camp ground at Lake Catani up at Mount Buffalo. Completely ignore the fact that it's in the monolith section of the guide book. Also ignore that the guide says out the back of site 30. Site 30:
a) doesn't exist anymore and
b) was in the middle of the camp ground anyway so walking out the back of the site puts you further into the camp ground
Instead, head out the back of camp site 35ish and walk up the hill and you'll find it. I tried to scramble up the 'grade 4 down climb' once and decided it must be easier to get down than go up...
Singersmith's picture also gives you a better idea of the angle than Stu's picture from a few pages back does, from memory it's quite steep:
