New Development at Mount Nicholson

Donna Mount NicholsonAfter many months hard work, Francis Haden has finally released details regarding the revamping of the cliffs on the north face of Mount Nicholson. Although climbers have been visiting this crag sporadically for decades and a few trad climbs had already been established, no one had made any significant attempts to establish it as a key climbing area until Francis and his drill were let loose earlier in the year.

The result of his work (plus the assortment of people he let in on his little project) is about 30 bolt protected routes primarily in the F6a to F6c range that comprise high quality of slab and crack climbing, not to mention fantastic views across Victoria Harbour.

A copy of Francis guide to the area can be downloaded from the link below and details will be added to the guide pages of the website shortly.
