Traversing routes/pitches 7-Oct-2015 At 12:12:02 PM euce

Message

I'd like to assemble a list of traversing routes/pitches in Australia. Girdle traverses, traversing pitches, diagonal pitches etc., essentially lines where skillful/technical traversing is the essence of the pitch/route (rather than "walk to right end of ledge" or "traverse 5 m left, continue upward for 30 m"). All grades, sport and trad.

Please add your contributions.
