Funky ancient bolt atop Tower 1 that looks like it was placed thirty or more years ago.

The Chelster on top of Tower 1 with Tower 2 in the background, separated by a hidden gnarly chasm

Rick White, Ian (Humzoo) Thomas and Ted Cais (L to R) at the start of Humility at Frog Buttress, Queensland, Australia on March 17, 1974. Great pioneering days in perfect sunshine sporting the typical (for the day) Whillans harness.

Chel relieved to find a hold after following Stone Mountain 5.5 friction in sneakers.

This picture is by Phil Box who posted it at http://www.pbase.com/image/28600819 It clearly shows one problem with hangers on carrot bolts.....

These are typical hangers (brackets) for carrot bolts

This is a 1980's "Masters of the Universe" chalk bag by the now defunct JRAT

Vintage anchor bolt on top of Swiss Cheese Wall, Big Rock. It's quality matches that of the "rock" here!

What a cool little route! It can be a beauty or a beast, depending on your bridging skills.

The rock here is very reminiscent of Arapiles - smooth, slick "baby butt" features!

Ted fooling around above a rare soft landing. Many other problems in this area have bad, wet landings where a pad can't be placed.

Michele warming up on some sharp pockets on this delightful boulder.

Ted lowering off the anchors of "Family Jewel" #4 (10c/d) as a warm up for the 5-star "Delicious" #5 (10d/11a) to the right. A terrific steep wall full of perfect pockets!

Climber on Americano at the beautiful Java Wall. Hope that Balanced Rock above doesn't fall!

Ted starting "Mr. Big" the 10d to the right of "NDS". The first three clips are all potential groundfalls on the jumbled blocks!

Like a 40'tall bowling pin, this cool feature is balanced precariously waiting for the first quake to send it tumbling down the hill to destoy the Grotto.

This is the west face of Big Rock with routes described in this section. The two-pitch climbs follow the grey streaks near the center past the holes. Fun cobble climbing!

My wife, the Chelster, at the belay station on T3 after our second ascent of Precious. The shadowy north face of T2 looms beyond with the summit tip of T1 just poking out the top left. A wild adventure place!
