Thanks for the responses guys,

I have fond memories of climbing at Moonbi approx 1990. Last weekend on route back from Frog (without your responses, unfortunately) we dropped in to hopefully do a climb or two at what I remembered to be anteater buttress. Got the cold shoulder from the particularly cranky landholder ostensibly located under the dome, with signs declaring open season on tresspassers all over his electric fence and gate. His westerly neighbour, by contrast is a friendly bloke who used to paraglide, and happily let us through (technically the slabs are on his land). Bashed up to and around the base of what I thought to be the crag, but couldn't seem to find anything that looked familiar, so left. Neither local seemed to have encountered climbers (although they had the air of being relative new owners), so must admit I'm not even sure we were at the right place, but it was the big obvious dome visible to the west of the big chook (as opposed to the area to the north described by climbingfool - which might have been the location I intended; Cheers for that!). Anyway, will make an effort to contact Al Stephens or the New England club next time.
