Locate the rough track that cuts off from the Bay access road about 120m downhill from the Lobotomy Buttress. This track broadly follows the old access road up the gorge until, after about 10 minutes, it passes under the Pacifica Wall. From there it heads up the hill. The first route is the monstrous corner system of Knowledge of Angels.

This long corner is an obvious feature sitting right above the track. Some cunning will get you up the initial corner section and then some stemming will get you up to the crack in the left-hand wall, where the difficulty relents until you reach the roof and the crux. Gear is required in the crack and a small/medium cam can be placed in the final headwall. |

One of the very best 24s at the Bay! This route starts up a steep corner just left of a Totara tree. Once above the corner, a series of cruxy sections lead to a fantastic upper wall. And it ain’t over ‘til it’s over. |

Just right of Into The Wild, a scruffy looking wall leads out of the trees to the rounded buttress, which is trickier than it looks. Above the buttress, a slab offers two possible exits. The left exit is a project. The right exit is the one you want, and it has two distinct cruxes and the most outrageous pocket match move at the Bay. |

About 100m further up the track. Start up the overhanging corner, with long pulls on good holds. After a rest on the ledge above the corner, sneak around the arete to the left (crux) to gain the long, pocketed face (direct start up the left wall is a closed project). |

| Going Blank Again, 29 | 29 | 12m | 6 |
|||
Climb the blunt pillar feature using compression and a sneaky thumb press. |

| The New Funk, 31 | 31 | 12m | 6 |

The funky groove on the right hand end of the wall offers a high quality technical challenge on bad holds and even worse feet. |
