The Tiers

NOTE: The Skink Rock boulder is nowhere near The Tiers. In the original printed guide booklet these two areas were on adjacent pages so I placed the maps on the same page. The Skink Rock boulder is of minor quality anyway and I don’t recommend the problems unless you are climbing at Skink Rock and want to play around.
