      *Conflation 12m 21

      Start just to the left of “The Last Splash” pinnacle around 15m right of “Powerplay” at the recessed corner. Up past 4 bolts to the 5th bolt which is the 3rd bolt on “The Last Splash”. Lower off fixed carabiners. Very stylish and technical stemming. Worthwhile if you are at the quarry.

      Miscellaneous comments:

      The route ends abruptly due to poor rock above. You could continue up “The Last Splash” to its loweroff, but the line needs cleaning, maybe another bolt, and removal of the shot crete from around “The Last Splash” loweroff. So as tempting as this may be – it is not recommended.

      Mountain Quarry miniguide will be update in due course.

      See the following links for pics of Owen downgrading the route. These pics are sure to be a hit on facebook with the ladies.
