Any rock climbers on Lamma?

I live in Macau and visit Lamma quite often. I really enjoy the climbing opportunities available in Hong Kong and I've heard some rumblings about a mysterious crag near the top of Mt Stenhouse. I hiked to the top about a week ago...I haven't been to the actual crag, but i know how to get there.

I'm curious to know if anyone has any information/topo of the climbs...

I found an ancient guide online...but it's not very helpful. I'm going to go exploring up there within the next month and any tips would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

-Seth

10 years or so ago there were people who climbed regularly on Stenhouse, you can reach the top of the cliffs by walking westish from the summit, the bottom of the cliffs was another problem, requiring the purchase of machetes and axes to clear vegetation.

Lots of photos of some recent rock-climbers on Mt. Stenhouse, including detailed GPS maps of their hikes and climbs. I've published them before in this forum a few months ago, just before my last time going up there (avoiding rock climbing whenever possible):
