From deep within the central water groove...

The water groove and the buckets.

In the vegetated gash looking towards Boulder/The Buckets.

Almost there.

Looking up at the Buckets route on Amoeboid from the starting point at its base.

A photo of the rough trail leading to/from the Buckets - fairly easy to follow in and out.

Looking back down the exit from the east face. A few stemming moves will get you up, it is tougher when damp. An overhang to the climber's left has a dusty slab I've never tried.

If you exit the Amoboid to the south and continue west (uphill), you will pass by these boulders on your way back to the Royal Arch.<br>

Although less than a quarter mile, I found myself doing some serious bush wacking in these parts.

Sunny cruising on Buckets.
