Routes as trad in The Oval Area

First grade 24 in Australia.

A classy addition. Route name changed after it was pointed out that the original name "City Street" had already been used for a nearby route.

Follows the corner feature a few metres right of 'Country Road', through a rooflet to ledge, with some airy moves to finish.

P1) Climb as for Comeback Trail, then instead of traversing under the roof, head out left in the obvious finger crack to the ledge. Build belay in the vertical crack.

P2) up the steep mossy crack on the big flakes, then pull up into the Groove and top out. Harder than it looks, but cleaning some moss out might reveal some good holds in the crack.

FA unknown, but I highly doubt nobody has ever done it before.

Route goes totally free at 18/19. Easy laybacking to some tricky moves through the roof. Great climbing.

2 bolts, one near bottom then trad for most and another at the top, with some nice trad in between on an arcing orange yellow crack.

Variant start to Wicked Solitaire. Climb the arete past 3 bolts.

Wide crack/chimney R of WS. Rap in towards waterfall from WS rap point.

Up chimney, move Across into corner then up crack to belay on ledge. Scramble up L to top.

Rap in from tree a few metres to the right of LGL to belay off medium cams or just sit in tree.

Up not too steep hand / fist crack back to the top. No much of a warmup for LGL but might get some blood going and test your tape job if using it ....

10m left of the 'Gorge Heritage Walk' sign near the oval is a faint path; this takes you to a large boulder perched on the edge of the cliff. Rap in from tree at top to semi hanging belay on cams/wires at the small bush and horizontal break.

Up the crack which gradually increases in size from small fingers to #1 camalot; the location of the crux will depend on your hand size.

Doubles of small/medium cams.

Stunning! Below LGL. Rap in, climb out via the arête, slab and think crack past FHs (20m) Finish up LGL.
