Routes as trad in Hum Terrace

A girdle traverse of the left side of the wall. Start 5 metres northwardsish of most southerly conifer.

From cave left of Down And Out climb out right and up overhanging wall.

Start from the big chock stone. Left to thin crack then up through roof to steep wall.

A few more repeats might help clear up the route description.

Option 1: From halfway along the Down And Out traverse, go up through bulges on tiny edges (and no gear?), to prominent flake.

Option 2: Traverse a quarter of the Down And Out traverse, then go up via thin seams and decent gear, before spanning a metre left to gain the prominent flake.

Follow the glory jugs to the Down And Out anchor (found tucked around the corner).

Up breaks L of red streak at top of Intrepid Gully.

Nowhere near Kansas City! Quite good but quite reachy and closer to 22 if you're short.

Pull up on jugs behind small tree immediately right of Kansas City DF, over bulge and up.

Start direct if you want but guard against cracked red hold with small cam (green Alien size). Otherwise start up Waddy Mackenzie.

Start 8m R of Kansas City Direct Finish. Boulder the hard start using square pocket and minimal pro, then up to the right of the left-leading diagonal, before following jugs to top.

One very long move on nice rock.

Steep wall on incuts to finish through overhang.

? repeat of Heavy Breathing.

1.5 metres left of Heavy Petting.

Fill in the double-entendres if you're so inclined. Start 3 metres left of Menagerie.

Strenuous for the grade but has great jugs. The Shepherd guide description for Menagerie followed this line but the original Menagerie description clearly places it further right. Start at top of rise behind the largest conifer (?same place as Heavy Petting).

Start right of largest conifer. Short red groove, traverse right then up to left-facing corner. Up corner and exit left.

Direct finish to The Second Affinity. Go straight through roof or left and up.

Absorbing climbing on immaculate rock. Originally the second pitch of a 2-pitch route; the first pitch is now The First Affinity. Start 5 metres down and right of large conifer.

Start as for Hum. Where Hum heads off R step L to slot under overlap. Pull through overlap and straight up with a steep finish.

Straight up to the break with not enough gear.

An enjoyable pitch with an exciting crux. Start 4m R of Affinity.

In fact it's a nearly blank wall. Pass the fixed hanger of High Kicks, and continue past a ringbolt, before getting to the honeycomb featured rock and a lower off.

Start just left of enormous conifer and just right of the rock step down and right from Hum. Technical moves lead to a delicate flake. The old carrot bolt, although poking out attractively, has been replaced. Finish at lower off where the nest of viper like rap slings once lurked ready to strike.

Desperate start. Start 3m R of High Kicks.

Sustained jamming and underclinging with feet cycling on glassy rock. The second pitch is fun in an adventurous way. Start below the right-leading roof-crack right of High Kicks.

1. 15m (20) Take the right-leading crack until it's possible to go left across the wall to cave belay.

2. 25m (18) Head right up steep wall then finish R up short steep corner.

A harder variant on the second pitch of Morning Thunder. The first pitch appears a bit pointless, and the route is best done by starting up Morning Thunder.

1. 15m (-) Start as for Morning Thunder, then go left under roof to cave on left.

2. 20m (24) Go out over roof diagonally right to join Morning Thunder at prominent flake. Continue up Morning Thunder until it traverses right on the second pitch; instead go straight up then hard moves 2 metres left to gain a horizontal edge, then easily upwards.

A great climb up the best section of the wall. Best done in one long pitch which will be pumpy to start and run-out to finish. Start at weakness 10m R of Stormalong.

1. 15m (24) Up crack to jug at roof. Arrange wires in horizontal pocket above roof then go boldly left and up to awkward stance. Veer right to flake then up to ledge.

2. 20m (22) Up easily on the left then traverse right above roof and up face to easier ground.

Very serious route up the Morning Thunder wall (although the addition of extra bolts to the second pitch has helped tame that part).

1. 15m (23) Start up Morning Thunder to overlap. The Mentz/Tempest guidebook advises to "go boldly up black streak", however it seems that there isn't a black streak, nor are there many holds (some edges appear to have snapped off), and there isn't any gear, which all makes this pitch very unappealing and unlikely at the grade. Then easily up to the ledge.

2. 20m (25) Straight over small roof then cautiously right to bolt (scary clip). Ignore the holds going up and left (for Morning Thunder), instead do a thin move right into scoop then easily to horizontal. Finish up right in shallow groove (it appears that 2 fixed hangers have been added to this section).

Climb past short wall and ledge to gain thin crack.

Wall 2 metres to right of FTRTTS with big pockets at 2 metres.

Go up 1 metre right of Up In Arms and right to overhang, step right, up.
