The steep wall on the far right hand side of Bare Rock has produced another outstanding new route. Fairies Wear Boots, 45m (27) has been put up by Ingvar Lidman from Natimuk. It takes a very overhanging line left of Supernaut (24) out to the arete above the massive roof. 4 bolts worth of steep grade 25 climbing leads to the crux rising traverse across the severely overhanging face out to the arete, then sustained grade 23 climbing up the arete for 5 bolts to join the last section of Supernaut. Though only 45m long, the routes on this wall have the awesome position of 150m of exposure beneath them. Access is via the mostly bolted 3 pitch route called Tomorrows Dream, 100m (16, 17, 19) which has had 7 ascents so far and climbers confirming its quality as a very good moderate sport climb, likely to become popular in its own right.
