The Moai is a classic destination climb on Tasmania's Fortescue Bay area. I took this pic on our recent Pinnacle Sports guided trip to Tasmania where I was working as a guide.

Peta Barrett high stepping on Pokomoko And The Valley Girls at Frog Buttress. This move is the crux of this monster hard route. Pokomoko is the second hardest route at the Buttress. Peta has worked on this route for over 12 months now and is getting very close.
