Climb the short left facing corner through a few tricky opening moves to better holds above and then carefully climb to the high first bolt. Proceed through the next few bolts on good holds between long stretches. The grade drops at the top as you move up through large chicken heads to the anchors.

Start at a shallow, left-facing feature and follow a bolt line up until you reach a traverse on heavily chalked holds.  This is the crux.  There is a bit of a runout to the anchors, but it's on much easier climbing.

Easy climbing leads to a thin crux from first to second bolt.  Easier climbing after.

Start slightly to the right of a thin tree on good holds, passing 2 bolts, to reach a slabby section.  At the base of the slabby section, head up and left using small but positive holds and high steps (technical crux).   After clipping the top bolt on the slab, head up into the overhang.  After a couple jugs, you'll hit a reachy move to another jug as you pull the lip of the overhang (redpoint crux).   After you pull the roof, it's smooth sailing from here.

Climb the face just left of the Chunko Goes Bolwing left-facing corner start. Climb straight up to the right-facing corner at the top. Climb the corner to about midway up, then step left around the arete to gain good holds that will bring you to the top.

Climb the nice face past a couple bulges to the bolted anchor.  Not a bad face climb.

Better than Orange Oswald.  Fun climbing through small roof sections.  Holds are all there and the sequences are relatively straight-forward.

Climb located 2 climbs right of Orange Oswald.

P1: Sport 6 bolts

Fun warm-up route for the rest of the wall.  Well bolted with a great rest about 1/3 of the way up.  The pump surprises you as you climb and you finish with a great view of the lake behind you.

Start on an easy corner and continue up the rounded arete to a ledge then move right and continue up the sloping holds to the anchor.

This climb is a must do for the warming up 5.10 climber.

Standard NRG climbing on ledges and pockets with slopey holds from the 3rd to 4th bolt.

Well, there was a fun move, then it got thin and not fun. Not for the short climber. (*Edited to Add, Michaels climbing partner that day is about 5'2" and she suffered up this climb, although we did think it was Scoot Your Muffin (5.10b).)

Bolts are poorly placed (*Edited to add and hard to clip if you are short, best to 'pink poin' this one.)

Roof system is funky and awkward at best, (*Edited to add, I did not climb this one, but I was just to the left climbing a few routes and Michael(A competent 5.12 climber and guide in the New) was suffering though this roof.)

30 feet of good gear with fingers and thin hands. Continue past to a ledge, climb through a 15 foot offwidth section, pull under and out the crack leading through the roof to the top.

By far the best gear line in Summersville.

Mantle up onto a ledge and then standup and clip the first bolt. From here it's exactly 6 moves to the dyno throw to a sloper. Great pockets and incut crimps up a short steep wall.

This route may seem harder depending on your height so I've neglected to use the book grade of 11b and instead opted for a 5.11 grade.

This route was bolted in the unfortunate location of the common bathroom break for many a Orange Oswald climber.

Easy slabby climbing leads to a big ledge. Clip the second bolt then pull through thin moves to third bolt where the climbing gets easier.

Short corner between hippie dreams and fabulous groupies fun moderate trad route..ends at anchors of  fabulous groupies

Fun moves up loose flake to gain one roof, pull a weird move, gain a tight left kneebar and rest, then pull the last roof to the upper face, pull a couple of 5.10+ moves then up easier ground to the anchors.

Don't read this if you don't want beta.

The first 3-4 bolts are the crux, after 4th bolt no hands rest (ledge), move fast to anchors.

Be prepared to clip from poor holds (considering the grade... crimpers slopers)

Start from the vegetated ledge and work your way up the face past a bulge or two to the anchors.

One of the best routes on this wall, but unless you are 6 ft you may find this route too reachy.

Locate the big sloper hold 8 feet off the deck with no holds except a good foot. You'll need some long arms to reach the start of this route. Walk into the wall with your hands up and latch on to that hold. The remainder of the route remains reachy in a few other spots especially around the 1st and 2nd bolts.

Staying direct is the best way to do this route, but by the looks of the chalk lines skirting out right around the 6 & 7th bolts avoids the small holds crux around the steeper sections of the rock. Moving out right is an option, but this way puts you too far right and a little runout so suck it up and go straight up for the real challenge, or put yourself in danger of penduluming and getting hurt.
