Ascensões em The Upper Terrace

Very thin feet on this one.

Tricky.

Beautiful V0 highball with a no-fall finish.

No-fall crack traverse.

Beta given by Steve Baskerville himself, great climb with a tough finish.

Great problem!

First pull off the ground intense for the fingers then its super chill

Tricky to see the feet glad the crew could tell me where my foot was, and didnt padstack the start

Good fun.

WTF? We just could not figure out this sit-start. Super gritty rock.

Super thin feet on this one, close to sending but missing some high holds at the moment.

Great climb movement on a beautiful arete and a high top-out requiring focus.

Came so close to sending, need to find a high hold to exit the mantle.

I can hang the Slopers no problem, but chose to work the easier version today until we figure everything out.

Got up by sheer determination. Sloppy footwork. Must repeat more gracefully

Hard to get established

Almost got it first burn... Two more shots but no such luck. High right heel!

A lovely line with fun movement.

She'll go. Very powerful, pretty sure I've got my send beta dialled but ran out of strength to put it together. Keen to tick this on the next Townsville trip.

Thought we were creating our own route by doing this traverse! "Testicle Traverse" is a better name. Start RH side on the obvious softball-sized jug. Right foot is best higher up. Traverse across to the amazing jug used on Testicle Mantle, make sure to tickle the (tooth-shaped) testicle with your RH before mantling. No clean mantles allowed. Entertaining whale/chinwa/alpine knee methods only.

A two-move wonder, with a few small bumps to set the hands after the jump. So happy to send this, well worth the power scream and sore throat that followed. I'm not sure which LH holds are out for the V6 (compared to V4 variant). Couldn't reach the nicer LH holds before/during the mantle anyway - just used the undercling further up to help top out. Sent on the second attempt of the second session.

Fun, easy.

A very hard V1 for those without mobility or height on their side! High right foot to start, bit of a reachy deadpoint to the pinch on the arete. Lovely feeling to send this one.

Thanks for the spot, Mick . Much appreciated.

Couldn't do the first move, moving either LH or RH up. Hard.

Very cool. Only two moves, but both are super fun. The move up to the jug makes you feel like a legend every time, even though it's easy. The mantle needs to be as messy as possible, for the entertainment of your spotters. Small boulder, minimal risk involved. The high right foot starting hold may be hard for some.

No shoes the first time, for extra spice. Repeated it twice the next day with my rock shoes. Much more secure. Only worth the stars if you do the whole first half of the route (the flake) as a proper layback.
