The cliff is visible to the west when driving up the midlandsMidlands highwayHighway." access="Access by driving north from Bothwell for about 1819 km on the Interlaken Road, and parking at a locked gate on the right 2km after the last house (Largo). Its best to bike to the crag as its about 7km. Follow logging roads north east to below the steep section of the slope below the cliff, turning left at all junctions, until you see the cliff. Now head east round the north side of the smaller hill, leave the bikes and walk up a steep 4WD track to below the centre of the cliffs. From here traverse right over scree to the right side of the cliff where two bolted climbs will be found. The rightmost is still a project. It takes about an hour to get to the cliff, but its an easy 10 minute walk and 15 minute roll back to the car." name="Table Mountain" walk="1 hour bike/walk" rock="Dolerite" acknowledgement="By Nick Hancock"/><climb id="2" stars="***" name="MissionWhirling ImpossibleDervish" length="25m" grade="24" extra="9Þ" fa="Nick Hancock, Dec 2011">Climb the beautiful blank groove with great technical interest past 9 bolts to a DBB.</climb><climb id="3" stars="***" name="Dizzy with the Vision" length="30m" grade="25" fa="Nick &amp; Heather Hancock, Roger Parkyn,  Jan 2012," extra="14Þ   ">Five metres right, climb the wall leftwards into a groove and then up through steeper terrain via wonderful climbing, and 14 bolts to a BB.</climb></guide>
