Did it yesterday! My first, first ascent. I have decided to call it Claw Tortoise, grade 18. All ubolts with loweroffs. Forgot to measure the height but around 15-20m roughly. Not sure what the wall is called (don't have my own guide). I think it is Zone 1 in the 2002 BM guide, around the corner up hill from the little wall next to Bushranger's Cave.

It is the left most seam/flake a couple of meters to the right of the tree at the far left of the wall. A good mix of moves. A few hard moves to start, then a few more from the top of the flake to the ledge. I had to hold on a bit tighter than I was expecting.
