An huge overhanging wall of the compact rock with lines that follow crack features offering a way through the blank sections. The walk-in is long but you will be rewarded with an great day of climbing!
In 1982 climbers started to explore the large walls on the back side of the Agterpakhuispas, they called them "Hope" and "Charity". That year many good routes were climbed on "Charity" and the next year "Hope" was explored. one of those was "Powerdrain", an intimidating line up the main face, and was freed the following year.
In 2013 Peanut Butter Crunch was put up left of the classic "ButterFingerCrisp" and the following year the hardest route so far was put up on the right, "The Arête Route".
A few years later, there was an attempt at putting up a multi-pitch sport route, but sadly the equipers did not do there research and ended up crossing "Powerdrain" and therefore adding bolts to this 5 star route.
In more recent times, Peanut Butter Crunch again an existing traditional route was bolted by someone.
The area is access sensitive!
Access: The land is owned by Travellers Rest but accessed through someone else land.
Drive: Parking near the old school.
Walk-in (old): 1.30hrs (I have done this walk-in many time and it is shit!)I
Along the track on the left side of the fields. Follow this to the end and then head up the steep hill on the left side of the slope staying away from the river (There are a few steep section which need to be negotiated). Depending of which route you are doing... you either head up to the rock face (Powerdrain) or continue up to the right along the base until you can get onto a very large ledge system with big roof.
Walk-in (New): 1.30hrs (I have never done this walk-in but apparently it is better?)
From the parking follow the right side of the fields and at the end walk directly up to the cliff staying to the right of the river away from the trees. At the base of the cliff traverse left to the large ledge with the overhang.
Descent: From the top of the cliff, walk to the right with the valley to your right until you find a weakness which enables you to walk down into the valley. Follow the valley back making sure to stay far right to stay in the narrow gulley which leads back to the ledge with the large overhang.
