“Cosmic Wall” is a large obvious buttress, and detached pillar, overlooking “The Ravine”, on
its northern side.
Access is possible from the first steep grassy slope on the right, after
passing the gate entering “The Ravine”. The next gully is steeper, but gives quicker, and
easier access to the western face of “Cosmic Wall”. Alternatively, walk above
“Assassination Wall” to the top of “Cosmic Wall”, which is marked by a large pine tree. The
descriptions start on the left of the west face, finishing on the right of the east face.

Follow the central line of bolts up the sheer left section of the wall. 6 bolts with
hangers, DBC belay. You had better dash up this one, otherwise your arms will
pump and you will crash.

Climb the right hand edge of the scoop 2½ metres right of “Killer Bees”. Finish 1
metre right of the bees nest. Apparently the bees are usually no problem (except
on stinking hot days!). No bolts yet. You may be able to find your way to the top of
the first pitch of “Bananas to the Beat”.
