Area Beyond the Stairway

CLOSED: Closed until further notice. Please do not climb here.
Updated 5 November 2024, by ezstewart.

Please do not climb at Mangaokewa until further notice. Negotiations are under way with DOC and Iwi, climbing while the crag is closed will jeopardise any possible future access. Thank you.

A creative name for an area! It may be lame, but it works. Starts just left of
"Stairway to Heaven" and goes left until the 2 staple accesses to "The
Headwall."

The bouldery,overhanging arête. Having a spotter before the first clip may be a good idea on this one. 3 bolts (DBB)

The line of 4 staples up the cruisey corner to a face/ arete climb with "secret" holds at the top. This is the closest line to the Stairway to Heaven. 4 bolts (DBB) 08

The equally creatively named area above the "Area beyond the Stairway"
which starts up just after the "Headwall" and finishes at the top of the
"Stairway
to Heaven."

A fun, juggy line with a tricky but cool top out. The best access is by heading up the Stairway to Heaven and heading left around 2 corners. 4 bolts (DBB)
