<header id="1" walk="25 min steep uphill" sun="Morning & midday sun" rock="Dolerite" name="Lowdina" intro="IMPORTANT: <br/>- You need to be back at your car before dark (landowner request)<br/>- Clean and disinfect your footwear before climbing here (farm biosecurity).<br/><br/>Only a short drive from Hobart, Lowdina is an excellent winter trad crag in the South. The rock quality is very good, and the crag provides a wide-selection of interesting routes, each with their own unique flavour. Though the cliff only makes minor first impressions, its hidden gems will become gleamingly obvious as you explore it. Summer climbing here is unpleasant, as it's usually too hot and the grass seeds through these months are very annoying. Routes are listed in the guide from climbers left to right." history="In the beginning..<br/>Michael McHugh first noticed the cliff from the Trans Tasman passenger train window traveling between Devonport and Hobart. Not long after, McHugh with Peter Jackson visited the cliff and in 1968 with Bob McMahon, John Moore and Mendelt Tillema put up the first routes. Jackson also published the first guide in the early 1970s with about 30 routes containing his signature sketches. The original guide can be viewed at Libraries Tasmania - Archives History Room in Hobart.<br/><br/>Rock-stars, run-outs and burn-outs..<br/>Between the late eighties and early nineties, new route activity at Lowdina was intense. Most of the harder routes done during this period were by Evan Peacock, Garn Cooper and Al Adams. Martin Stone published a new guide in the mid-eighties but it soon became outdated. Evan Peacock and Colin Reed published a third guide in 1992 that formed the basis of the crag info later published in Craglets. In the mid-nineties interest in Lowdina waned for various reasons including the need to complete an indemnity form prior to visitation. During the 00s and 10s sporadic visitation meant a significant number of routes retreated under a liberal coating of Lowdina’s infamous lichen.<br/><br/>The future..<br/>Lowdina’s relative obscurity was set to change. During winter 2021, the crag sparked the interest of Christoph Speer, Hamish Jackson and Martin Brown, signifying the start of a modern revival. Recognising the value of the cliff for winter trad-climbing, work began on serious route cleaning, installation of lower-offs and replacement of the old carrot bolts, giving the crag a much needed face-lift. The guide has also been re-written, with the addition of topos to assist in route navigation, as well as revised route descriptions and some upgrades. During this period there has been significant new route activity spearheaded by Speer, Jackson, Brown and Broome." guide.type="header" guide.page="0" guide.id="0" guide.action="submit" acknowledgement="Originally published in Craglets by Evan Peacock. Guide update and crag revival undertaken by Christoph Speer, Hamish Jackson and Martin Brown, with help from friends and the CCT." access="Special provisions are required to visit this cliff, and ongoing access is reliant on the climbing community doing the right thing. The cliff lies on private land, and the owners, N and R Bevan are very friendly people that are happy for people to climb here, as long as the following process in adhered to:<br/><br/>1. Clean, wash and disinfect your shoes thoroughly prior to coming (essential for farm biosecurity).<br/>2. Contact the Bevans at least the day prior to your trip (text preferred - 0418 604 286 or 6260 4286). Include in the text who is coming, in what car(s) and a time you will arrive.<br/>3. Sign onto the indemnity-form / register at the stile before you enter the property. You need to do this each time you visit.<br/>4. Leave a nice box of chocolates if you visit frequently - and make sure you're off the cliff and back at your car before dark.<br/><br/>Access to the cliff is located from the end of Lowdina Road in Campania (about 4.2km North of the town centre). A convenient parking area is located at the end of the road just after the old house at the railway-line.<br/><br/>Walk to the LHS of the old house above the railway-line to locate a wooden stile. Sign-in, then cross the fence here and start walking towards the cliff, keeping just left of the fence-line. Pass an old gate (close behind you) and head-up over a short hill, cross the field past some boulders and look for some more pink tape on a fence at the base of the hill. Keep following the rough track up the steep hill to arrive at the Bismark Buttress. Make your way along the base of the cliff-line to move between buttresses." camping="There is basic camping at Colebrook Park near the Craigbourne dam (10 mins NW of Lowdina), and Campania Flour Mill Campground 10 mins SE of Lowdina. <br/><br/>Please DO NOT camp on the Lowdina property itself." autonumber="true"/>

<text id="429" class="text">Rock climbers please contact the Cliff Steward (lowdina@climbersclubtas.org.au) if you have any queries or concerns regarding social or environmental impacts of rock climbing at this crag. Do not email regarding general travel, seasonal advice, or lost property - this is not the Steward’s role. If you have important safety information to communicate (e.g. risks due to recent and large rock falls) please also consider updates on thesarvo forum, facebook group and/or online guidebooks as appropriate.

<text id="352" class="heading2">Gear and Grades</text>
<text id="353" class="text">A single rack of wires and a double rack of cams from BD #0.3 to #3 will suffice for most climbs, with a #4 and #5 being useful at times. Include RPs and micro-cams in your rack (doubles are ideal). A 60m single-rope is the go here, although double ropes (or a single folded over) may keep you safer on a couple of extreme routes (e.g. Little Squeaky Feet).<br/><br/>Try any of the following recommended routes if time is short and you want the best - general consensus has been that grades here may feel a little stiff if you're used to sandier places. <br/>- A ~ symbol indicates the need for RPs / micro-cams. <br/>- A + symbol means very approachable and well protected.<br/><br/> <12 - Papillon+, Tormentil+, Greenknowe<br/> 13 - The Ants Pants+, Casuarina Crack+, Sweetie<br/> 14 - Things to Do While Waiting for the Apocalypse, Strawberries+<br/> 15 - Canary, Bismark+<br/> 16 - Chocolate+, Ulysses, Hood<br/> 17 - Hooter~, Subvert the Dominant Paradigm, Virag, Snoober~, Ferio+, Ungar+, Chook Fever+, Psoriasis<br/> 18 - The Danger Hog Shuffle, Wolftone+, Anzac Day, Felix+, Daytime Delinquents, Mother Earth+, Mick Goes to Moonah~, Time Warp~, Electric Exercise Bike~, Boys in Bikinis<br/> 19 - Yoda~, Something Scurrilous+, Don't Jolt That Bolt~<br/> 20 - Liars and Losers~, Illegal Move, Gecko~, Authoritarian Ultranationalism+<br/> 21 - Brittle Little Mothers~, Balbatross, Rogering the Rock+, Bulging Biceps~, Maggot on a Brick+, Caged+, Ukiyo-e+, Scaredy Cat~<br/> 22 - Drury Line, Acerb, Plasticine Thylacine, Punks and Lepers~, Picnic in the Front Room~, Ashlars Edge+<br/> 23 - Albatross, Lumbar Cruncher+, Little Squeaky Feet~<br/> 24 - Lumber Cruncher Direct+, Bonsai+, Radical Centrist+<br/> 25 - Onklunk<br/> 26 - Wailing Wall+<br/><br/>Try these is you want to test yourself on the signature RP/micro-cam protected, technical face climbing at Lowdina:<br/>1.

<text id="349" class="heading2">Bolts</text>
<text id="350" class="text">Most of the old carrot bolts have now been removed and replaced with stainless steel fixed hangars or glue-ins. There are still a couple floating about yet to be replaced (noted in the descriptions). Any remaining carrots and mild steel FH's should be treated with much caution, they are likely 30+ years old now. Some old pitons are also still in-situ (mostly in good condition) - back these up where possible. As always, you should inspect all fixed gear before use - you are in charge of your safety.</text>
<text id="357" class="heading2">Quality</text>
<text id="358" class="text">Most of the popular routes have now been repeated and cleaned since the cliffs revival in 2021. Many of the routes here likely hadn't had a repeat ascent for close to 30 years - and as such, some routes have gained or lost stars depending on various factors. As such, the star ratings you see in this guide will be pretty accurate to the current quality of the route.<br/><br/>*** - Classic. One of the best at the grade in Tasmania.<br/>** - Highly memorable. Great climbing and one of the best at the crag.<br/>* - A good route that's worth doing.</text>
<text id="354" class="heading2">Ethics</text>
<text id="355" class="text">Much time, effort and money has gone into rejuvenating this crag for winter trad-climbing options close to Hobart. Please respect the land-owners wishes regarding access, remember that you are on private land and act accordingly. Please top-rope anchors through your own gear to avoid premature wear.<br/><br/>The ethic at this crag is traditional, and it is expected that natural protection should be used where-ever reasonable placements exist (including #1RP placements!). Some routes here will test your ability to place small gear and climb with confidence above it. Whilst mixed routes are common, the crag is not suited to fully bolted routes. To improve the climbing experience, some climbs have had their old bolts re-positioned, and in certain circumstances bolts have been added with permission of the FA following wider consultation.</text>
<text id="423" class="heading2">Environment</text>
<text id="424" class="text">Peregrine Falcon's almost certainly nest around the cliff and have done so for many years, although the location of their current nest site in 2020-2022 era is unclear, with occasional sightings of birds only (not distress signals). In 2022 sightings have been reported in the far northern reaches of the crag. Previous nesting sites reportedly include one behind Bismark Buttress and one atop Virag Buttress. Please be on the look out and report sightings to the CCT peregrine stewards. If you start hearing a lot of squawking and/or start getting swooped, please climb elsewhere on the cliff to avoid disturbing the birds during their nesting season (usually between July - December).<br/><br/>Please stick to the marked track as much as possible - even when it's wet and muddy. Track braiding can become a real problem and work is undertaken regularly to minimise our impact. Please help to keep existing tracks free of sticks and debris and please avoid creating new ones.</text>

<text class="text" id="3">Rarely visited, Scharnhorst Buttress is at the far left hand end of the crag immediately before the the hillside turns to the south and into a gully. Beyond the gully the cliff-line peters out. Approaching from the right, the buttress is about 80m left of a narrow scree slope.</text>
<climb id="4" name="Scharnhorst" fa="Karl Prinz, Kevin Kiernan, Mary McWhirther, Feb 1975." stars="" number="1." length="15m" grade="12" extra="">Scharnhorst is the furthest left hand climb on the crag. The route climbs a groove, that continues up a contoured crack through a small roof. It roughly finishes up the nose of the buttress. Avoid the loose slabs on the left near the top.</climb>
<climb id="5" name="Blackheads and Beauty Spots" fa="Al Adams, Evan Peacock, Tim Olding, Aug 1988." stars="" number="2." length="15m" grade="16" extra="">Start in the alcove 6m right of Scharnhorst, off the top of the pillar. Step across and up to the ledge below the flake. Go up the right hand crack, then move left and up past the right hand edge of the flake, finishing up the crack. RPs and microcams useful.</climb>

Start immediately left of The Spastic Acrobat on the left hand side of the arête. Climb to the horizontal at 3m (and place gear!) then launch for the bolt (hoping your belayer jumps downhill if you fall off clipping). Finish through the small roof on the left.

Look for a smooth, grey face split by a horizontal break near the top. Start just right of the obvious crack, and go straight up the face on RPs to a small ledge. Continue up on small holds and layaways (more RPs) to the horizontal, then crank through to the finger crack (lichenous) and the top.</climb>

RP placements appear 3.5m above the horizontal break, one set of RPs #2-5 are essential, with doubles of size 2 and 3 serving well. With nesting of RPs at the crux, and an attentive belayer while the nest of RPs goes in, the climb can be on-sighted fairly 'safely' (despite appearances).</climb>

Start on the far LHS of the buttress and climb the face / flake, trending right to the horizontal break at 6m. Take a deep breath and commit to the bulge and seam-line above the ledge (RPs), aiming for the horizontal break (crux - a long reach helps). Continue up the face and LHS arete above with better protection (RPs and small cams) to the lower-off.</climb>

Start-up the face past 3 bolts to the horizontal break (finger sized cams), complete the boulder problem trending right past another bolt (crux #1), to a stance below the first roof. Clip the last bolt (use a long draw) and trend left around the first roof (crux #2) to enter the groove crack (small wires and cams). Lower-off. Originally graded 20, hard at 22!</climb>

Follow the exciting rising traverse left across a thin flake to a stance below a piton (still usable 2021 - back up with cam/nut). Continue straight-up the thin vertical crack-line on micro-cams to an easy mantle and follow the line to a ledge. Finish up the short wall above to a lower-off.</climb>

<climb id="112" name="Albatross" fa="Ian Lewis, 1974. (the first record of this ascent appears in the Jan 1975 edition of Mountain #41, where it is graded 21)." stars="***" length="30m" grade="23" extra="" number="140.">In retrospect this climb was Australia’s first grade 23 - although it was graded 21 after the FA. A test-piece in technical jamming. The route follows the intimidating, overhanging, slick corner-line. Layback the flakes direct (dubious attachment) or traverse in from the left. Swing right around the corner, and then delicately mantle to the small ledge and smooth wall. Haul yourself up past the spike and into a stance at the base of the bottomless crack. Follow this with difficulty to the top. Lower-off.<br/><br/>The first climb actually given the grade of 23 was Henry Barber’s ascent of Insomnia at Frog Buttress in 1975 (now down graded to 22). For over 40 years it was falsely reported that Lewis used a point of aid for rest on Albatross’s 1974 first ascent. In interviews for Gerry Narkowicz’s book on the history of Tasmanian climbing in 2018, Lewis and his belayer Lyle Closs, categorically state that the route was done free. Barber who was originally credited with the first free ascent of Albatross the following year, ironically fell off the route, the only climb that he was reported to have fallen off during his visit to Australia. The climb was subsequently upgraded to 23 and is universally considered rather hard at this grade. So, it seems that at the time of Lewis' ascent it was the hardest piece of climbing done in Australia by quite a margin, but the grade was under-estimated by Lewis at the time - as was typical of his harder routes.</climb>

Climb the line avoiding the worst of the tragedy by traversing from the top of the shaky block around the nose and up on small holds. Continue straight up. Protection is difficult to arrange.</climb>
<text class="heading3" id="172">Lumbar Cruncher & The Danger Hog Shuffle Buttresses</text>
<text id="251" class="text">Found above and to the right of the Papillion Buttress. A number of fantastic climbs on excellent quality and interesting rock. Lower-offs exist at the top of each buttress. Further past the Danger Hog Shuffle, the cliff-line starts to peter out until you come to the Wailing Wall.</text>
