Once you have driven past Maydena, continue into the National Park along the Gordon River road, driving past the Scotts peak dam turn off (Frodshams Pass). About 5 km on from here, the road will be heading downhill. After passing several minor offshoots, a sign indicates &quot;Clear Hill Road&quot;, follow this.  Turn right down the road and drive for 16 km (from the Gordon Road) until a large boulder sticks out on the right, nearly overhanging the road (this is the climb Roadkill!). If you haven't been here before look out for this boulder as it is easy to miss and is the best way to locate the area. A top-rope problem also exists on this boulder and is about grade 17. Only 50 metres on from this it is possible to park on the left, opposite a slimy looking bank. Walk up this bank with a little difficulty, then head up to the right through bracken and bushes for about 100 metres to the large boulder. This boulder is known as The High Wire.  Also of note is the great swimming hole about 3 km past the High Wire. It lies about 50m downhill of the bridge. There is a good flat camping area at the base of the hill about 2km past the car park. &lt;br/>N&gt;N.B. The gate on Clear Hill Road isn't always open - it depends on forestry operations, bushfires and burn offs. Check with Forestry before driving all the way out there - it could save a lot of angst."
 Alternatively, drop by Forestry Tasmania at 79  acknowledgementMelville St, Hobart, during business hours, and ask to borrow the key to Clear Hill Road (they'll know what you are talking about). They'll get you to fill out a form and leave a $100 deposit." acknowledgement="Edited by Sam Edwards &amp; Roger Parkyn (after previous work by Rob Williams), originally published in Craglets."
        history=""
        intro="The rock at Adamsfield makes for a complete change from climbing on dolerite; being short, pocketed and very steep. There is more steep rock here than any other developed climbing area in the state. It's all bolt protected too, so you can leave your rack at home. The spectacular surroundings add to the charm of the place (although the area's high rainfall does tend to make it a summer crag). The rock is conglomerate and a little loose at times, but after cleaning, some excellent routes emerge.  People considering putting up new routes at this crag should respect its established ethics and tradition. Do not use either &quot;natural&quot; equipment or bolts that require key-hole hangers as nobody will be bringing them here.  Adamsfield has little to offer in the way of good easy routes, and as such could hardly be recomended as a good beginner crag. To get the most out of this place you will want to be climbing 23 and up, although there are probably enough easy routes for a couple of trips. The rock is really sharp here too and takes some getting used to."
