There are two "normal" ways - O'Neills and the Face Track.

I regard O'Neills as the "normal" way but I've only been the Kings road way. Is that the Face Track?

This is on O'Neils just near Reggies Falls - so Last has it [before he said more..]

O'neils, the "normal" way was my guess. I was only trying to clarify if what NNW calls the Face Track is the Kings Road route. Next

I have no idea Last, but that looks a horrible day for a walk. Are you/that person howling into the rock face in despair at the weather? :)

Looks like some sort of old road you're on?

Not me, walking companion searching for something in their pack. Out of the shelter it was difficult to stand. It's not a road but probably generations of bushwalkers have sought shelter here.

You may be onto something. Would you like to be more specific?

I feel a bit bad for jumping in, but is it just below the top of Maxwell Ridge? On the Ooze Lake side.

Correct. A nice place to shelter on a summers day. Actually it was March.

I remember trying to shelter there in very similar weather, but wind was blowing rain underneath the overhang.

Next, one from the archives. Where was I about 6 years ago?

You're in the correct national park, but it's not Apsley Gorge.

It sure is. Somehow missed the route down to the base, so I have to be content with only seeing it from the top.

Well, Bonds Craig, Reeds Peak and Great Dome from that side and that angle suggests somewhere in the Mt Field NP. Not Lord or Lanes - vegetation is wrong. Maybe from near The Watcher?
