Rod I remember trying to climb the right hand finish to Crack of Dawn last time I did it, and there really isn't much room between the natural groove/crack to the ledge and what is now called Enterprise.

> This is mostly because it has become overbolted from what I remember it as, but that is another discussion...

Actually Barrenjoey is a trad and mixed climbing BASTION, preserved while the rest of the Sydney, Blue Mountains and Southern Highlands climbing communities continue their great work of grid bolting dozens of mediocre new routes into every piece of exposed sandstone we can find.

It might be unpopular to say this but in this case I am fully behind the NPWS new bolting ban.

It is, but I'm no longer a Pittwater resident with a car sticker for free parking! Also, it's three times as far away.
