The first pitch of Chockstone Gully Photo: Chris

11 December, 2016:

Chockstone Gully is an interesting 'D' grade climb on the Eastern Table of Table Mountain, with a variety of stances and moves.

The first pitch is easy enough, as seen in the photo here. On the 2nd pitch a narrow chimney makes the ascent rather awkward, especially if carrying a backpack. And the 3rd pitch features a rather daunting and tricky underhang, which exists through the roof of a chimney.

Overall an interesting climb, requiring a range of technical ability.
