This small quarry is about 320m S.S.E of Captain Cook’s Monument and few metres below the main footpath which slants down the hill (a small holly bush above the quarry is a useful marker). The routes reach a maximum height of 5m, and offer a few lower grade problems in a quiet spot with a superb outlook. Only the best of the many variations are included here. The climbs are described left to right.
1. Bewit 4m VD
The slabby aręte on the left side of the quarry.
2. Lure 5m VD
Gain the obvious shelf on the left side of the main wall and follow the ramp rightwards.
3. Hawkeye 5m 4c
Ascend the old peg crack with interest. Sandy jamming!
4. Falco 5m 5a
Climb the wall and rock scar just right of Hawkeye.
5. Eyasses 5m 4c
The crack in the aręte.
6. Jesses 4m VD
The aręte on its slabby right side.
Just to the right is Easy Crack, a convenient descent route.
A few metres to the right, is a smooth compact wall.
7. Gyr 5m 5a
Gain a small shelf then climb the centre of the smooth wall. Delicate.
8. Wild Side 4m S
The awkward chimney.
9. Antz 4m HS
Climb the wall to the right of the chimney.
