Steve from bmtopos.com has just put the Farside and boganville guide on his site. For those who don't know, the Farside is about 45min walk or 30min ride from the diamond falls carpark. There are about 35 routes from 24-31, with about 5 in every grade from 25-30. Routes are gently to lots overhanging, and 20-35 metres long. Rock is similar to bell crag, and the aspect a lot like diamond falls....good spring/summer/autumn, and freezing in winter. Mostly long pumpers.....
Another alternative to bell maybe, and a bit easier (and drier but looser) than elphinstone! |
