West Lindfield

The smaller, pocketed wall provides many eliminate problems, and some big roof problems as well. This wall is about 4m in height, with the main section comprising a 4m roof about 2m off the ground. The entire wall is covered in pockets and juggy nodules, making almost the entire thing climbable.

The larger wall is about 12m high, with 6m to 8m rooves capping most of the crag (which probably protect it pretty well from the rain). Most of the problems are concentrated towards the left hand end, with traverses towards the middle and right hand ends. There are also 3 or 4 rotting sport routes here, but I wouldn't trust any of the bolts! The problems here tend to be quite similar to Sissy Crag.

The smaller wall faces almost due north, but is well shaded by trees, so is probably good on all but the hottest summer days (it may also be a little cool on cold winter's days). The larger wall faces north east, and is not as well shaded, so is better on summer afternoons, or winter mornings.

Both walls have excellent bouldering, and are quite different in style to each other. The quality of the problems along with the very picturesque setting make this a highly recommended bouldering destination!

The guide for the area is the newly published Sun, Surf and Sandstone online guide book. This crag is described here.
