Lost crag/route descriptions, any ideas? (Geoff?) 1-Jul-2018 At 4:11:24 PM gfdonc

Hi,
I'm looking for some help placing the following routes (Grampians, Halls Gap area).

They're supposed to be at "Relph Rock" which I reckon is the small crag just downhill from the walking track, heading north from The Pinnacle. However none of the route descriptions match the crag, so I reckon they've gotten mixed up and belong somewhere else. Anyone shed any light on these and/or have route descriptions for the routes actually at Relph Rock? Geoff, hello?

1. An Old Flame 25m 16
Line above R edge of block (landmark) at base of L side of cliff. Chris Baxter, John Moore 23.9.07

2. Fairway to Heaven 25m 18
Crack 1.5 m R of An Old Flame. Take L and XL cams. Geoff Little, Chris Baxter, Maureen Little 24.8.08

3. Pig-Iron Bob 25m 16
Line up R side of buttress, 13 m R of Fairway to Heaven. John Moore, Chris Baxter 23.9.07

4. The Rounds of the Kitchen 18m 19
Some delicate moves on beautiful rock. The promi-nent, water-washed, orange-and-black diagonal rising from L to R. The climb starts from a grassy ledge and immediately R of a black chimney-gully. From the end of the diagonal, go up past a tree into a gully which finishes at a second tree (abseil). Chris Baxter, Stephen Hamilton 11.5.08
