Great work Richard! What would you say the average height of all the routes would be?

Hi

Most routes are 15m or higher - 5, 6 or 7 bolts long. The longest just about reach 20m.

I've bolt a few on Bat Buttress that have 8 bolts - which are suitable for a first outside lead.

The routes at the east end - Sunset Boulevard are the shorter routes. These have 3 bolts and the belay.
