13 | ★ Big Kiss
THIS AREA OF MOUNT OBERON HAS PREVIOUSLY BEEN RECORDED AS PANORAMA WALL (VCC EASTERN VICTORIA GUIDEBOOK) The line of BK can clearly be seen as the left hand skyline of the Summit of Mount Oberon from the campground at Tidal River.

FA: Karl Bromelow, Mandy Robertson & Kai Seth Robertson, 9 Jun 2014 | 40m, 2 | |||
5 | Slippery Slide
Starts as for "Big Kiss". Can be broken into 2 pitches to reduce rope drag (either at first crack after traverse or at the top crack at the lower rib). This original start eliminates the closing offwidth crack start. Start below the right of the two cracks in the wall in front of the huge boulder at the bottom of the crag as for "Big Kiss". Climb this crack over the easing angle and then traverse right over slab to join left facing crack (SS DS). Starts tending left up to horizontal break, and follows the water stain across small holds (slippery after rain). The route then joins the start of right tending crack just above the vegetation in the rib over easing ground for 10m to the lower of 2 old rusted Parks Victoria fence/sign poles. Belay at end of the crack. Walk off toward summit and join track. FA: Luke Baxter, Grant & Tayla Chrystie, Apr 2022 | 60m | |||
8 | Slippery Slide Direct Start

Starts at base of flake, up steep wall for 5m and onto easing angle continuing to follow crack. SS then follows the water stain across small holds (slippery after rain) staying left of the steep wall to right. Up this stain to join the right facing crack above the vegetation. Above the vegetation in the rib over easing ground for 10m to the lower of 2 old rusted Parks Victoria fence/sign poles. Belay at end of the crack. Walk off toward summit and join track.
