funniest route description ?!? 11-May-2005 At 6:18:30 PM dan

The rock guide to Frog Buttress is full of nutty Britt humour. But it is hard to go past the description to the most sandbagged starter climb on the crag

Blood Sweat and Tears 40m 15. (I have a scribbled comment beside it 'F***ed offwidth body crack, good pro)

Undoubtedly one of the best and more popular middle grade climbs on the cliff. THe scene of several 20m falls (note: 40m cliff), one of which ripped John Webbs pants right off as he hurtled past the tree! (yes, the tree is still there and growing strong)

Don Speeds Electric Bird 18m 14
If you insist on climbing such utter scank, you deserve whatever fate befalls you.

Great fun if you want to become a boy Soprano

The ones to really look out for though are the climbs with comments such as 'An old fassioned classic' 'Delightful face climbing' 'Sustained and Classic Crack Climbing'

Despite this it is still the most worthwile Crag in Australia for the crack climbing nutjobs amongst us.
