Description

A slabby section of rocks with fun routes and a good selection of moderate climbs. The two Unnamed routes on the right share an anchor as do the remaining three on the left.

Getting There

Hike up to Open Book Wall, turn right where the trail meets the cliff and follow this around the arete until you reach the 1st gully on your left. Scramble up this for about 20 metres and turn left to gain the ledge, which forms the base of Transgression Wall.
