Billy Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 Anyone done any of the routes on Big Kangaroo? Any route suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonthomp Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 I did one route up on Kangaroo about 15 years ago. I can't remember exactly which one (think it was the south face), an easy moderate with good pro and reasonably solid rock. Though from looking at the route info I may be confusing it with the N. Face of Kangaroo Temple. Too many brain cells gone since then and not a good enough climb to burn it in my memory forever. Personally, I would choose one of the more classic routes unless you've done them all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stefan Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 I have done the easiest route on Big Kangaroo. The earlier the better if you leave from the hairpin becuase there is A LOT of scree involved. Route is as Beckey states. The very last portion is a smooth slab that can be protected by throwing a rope over the summit and belaying by the partner on the opposite side if slabs are not your kinda thing.
