It was another stunning day in South East Queensland, we traveled under cold and crisp clear blue skies all the way past Moogerah Dam to Mt Greville.
Starting up the tourist track, Damon (recovering from the flu) and I detoured past 'Springfield Wall', checking out some pretty serious overhung climbing, before heading further up the Waterfall Gorge trail. Descending into the gully then making out way upstream we passed the great 'Wizards Sector' wall before arriving at the 'Grey Wall'.
After orientating ourselves we climbed 'Pick Pocket' (16) as a warm up. The climbing on tiny edges and shallow pockets was made harder by the frigid rock sucking the warmth from our fingertips. The slightly dubious strength of rock didn't help either. Nevertheless we finished the climb and looked around for another.
After an aborted attempt on 'Ain't No Sunshine' (18) we decided to head back to 'Little Springfield' and try ourselves on the shorter, harder routes.
We climbed 'Maggies Dummy Spit' (19) but could not find the anchors, instead having to traverse the semi-detached pillar and scrambling out the top.
By that stage it was getting late, and as the quality of climbs was a bit of a let down we decided to call it a day.
We detoured back home around the southern side of Moogerah Dam, briefly stopping to take in the amazing sunset. Great to be back out exploring...
