    Rob Wall showed me a different part of the ‘reach’ from the standard traversing area that I had been on

    downstream from the main area at the last lookout before the beach carpark (there is an obvious small pillar), downclimb to the L (downstream) then follow the mega traverse lip jughaul upstream, deep water underneath its possible to go about 20m upside down, untold variations, pumpy and really good

    Any chance of some photos of the area and maybe some established routes, and danger spots in the future? 🙂

    youd have to ask Rob and the other long timers about ‘established routes’ , pics maybe , biggest danger hitting a dolphin when you fall off

    It’s a traverse . . . start somewhere, traverse along, traverse back. Not really any established problems except for the classic V8 ‘avoid having car broken into’.

    Sometimes the difficulty of that problem is raised to about V-impossible . . . .

    The best way to get to Blackwall is to paddle across, also a good warm-up! 🙂
