Seals breed in Parliament House cave during the autumn months and climbers should take particular care not to disturb them during the time from late August to late October when the young seal pups can be eailsiy sepreated from their mothers with devastating consequences.
A large (huge!) rockfall occured at the back of Parliement House Cave in 2017 which affects some of the routes in the cave and further rockfalls are likley!
55m.
The wall and grooves right of Resolution Direct. Follow the crack right of Resolution up to a wall below the first roof. A few thin moves brings the roof. Lunge out of the right side of the roof to good holes. Attack the following roof via the crack that leads to the small corner. Hard moves lead to easier ground which is taken to a ledge right of the Resolution belay. Mike Twid Turner and Stuart McAleese, May 2006
Affected by a large rockfall above the first roof in May 2022 - if it's reclimbed it's unlikely to remain the same grade. Start just right of Resolution Direct. Head up a groove to a triangular roof, cross this on the righthand side to a sloping shelf. Move left to a juggy flake, from here launch rightwards into the steepness to gain and follow the crackline to a crux move over the bulge. Step left into a bottomless groove and follow the furry wall to a good belay beneath Achilles.
