Access Issue: Permission required before climbing - private farmland Details

Hi access for Sheridan has changed and permission is now required. Please use this notice:

"For Biosecurity reasons, before entering this property permission MUST be obtained from the landowner. Phone 027 527 1744. NO EXCEPTIONS. Also read the NZ Alpine Club sign at the Seafund Road gate.

Do not block the gate! Leave gates open or closed as you found them. No dogs. This is private farm land."

Description

The first large rock formation you see when walking into the crag. The name is inspired by similar outcrops in Greece that often had temples built on top of them. Only a few official routes and unbolted. DBB anchors on top, so someone needs to solo tortoise (5.4) to set up top ropes on the other routes.
