The sport routes on Weather Wall are all good fun
on a north facing wall that catches the morning sun and gets late arvo
shade. Park at the Sundial car park and walk 20 minutes to The Pinnacle.
From 50 metres north of this you can look back south and see the wall.
Either scramble down to the top of Big Merino Wall and edge fearfully to
the rap point above "It's Raining Men" (scary) or walk 100m+ further north
and down the gully to the base. Tourists don't see you there unless mates
are sitting on the top of the cliff watching you climb. - Contributed
