A coffee table book celebrating climbing in Australia, grade 17 and under.
From the Author John Morris:
This story began with my dad. When I was 14, I struggled with depression, climbing became my rudder, the thing that kept me steady. I made a list of 50 climbs in Victoria, all grade 17 and under, that I wanted to complete with him. That list became our first book, 17 Down Under: A Celebration of Moderate Grade Climbing in Victoria.
But even then, I knew the title belonged to something bigger: a book that celebrated all of Australia.
This book is named; 17 Down Under: Australian Rock Climbing.
This project has been over a decade in the making, drawing on 20 years of climbing experiences. Along the way, I’ve explored every major state and territory, camped in countless wild places, and met an incredible community of climbers willing to share their stories and photos. Two years into the journey, I met Mel. Together, we have built a life, travelled around Australia to photograph for the book, got married and later welcomed our son Teo into the world. Through all the twists and delays of life, the project endured. Now it’s ready to share.
This is not a guidebook or a history. It’s a coffee table celebration of Australian rock climbing, the people, the places, the rock itself and the stories that define it.
At the end of each state or territory chapter there is a few double page spreads of bonus crag galleries that include area descriptions and photos of places that did not get featured.
Grades 17 and under are where many climbers begin, but these climbs are often overlooked in climbing media. Yet they are full of character, history, and adventure. Some are beginner-friendly, others are sandbags or bold epics. Together, they capture the breadth of what makes climbing in Australia so special.
This book preserves stories, celebrates landscapes, and shares the voices of our community. It’s about more than climbing grades, it’s about connection: to people, to nature, and to ourselves.
This book is truly a community project. Over 110 contributors generously shared their images, words, and memories. Without them, this book would not exist.
