Upper Tier Principalement Escalade sportive 17 voies en secteur

Begin just R of Quokka and climb onto a big block below the L end of the roof. Step up R (be wary of the flakes) then head directly to the arête and continue

Right of nose on wall starting left of single bolt belay. Thin moves up slab to ledge. Pull through roof around large block on right then easily up left to chains.

Climb right trending diagonal line to a prominent horizontal below a groove/series of vertical sidepulls. Undertake an interesting crux sequence through these to gain shelf up and left. Further jug hauling brings the anchor to hand.

Takes the right hand line through the worst rock quality in this sector. Climb up off the hand traverse chain to a series of loose jugs and flakes (if you must).

History’s cloudy but first bolted in early 2000’s with home made hangers. Recently re equiped. Climb easy face to traverse line. Move around bulge through a tricky clip to chockstone under final roof. Thin holds gain the slab above to lower off anchor.

1 historic hanger left on route but not needed for line. First accent was to original double hangers on the lip of the roof but since extended above head wall for a better finish.

Same start as for Redemption. At the end of horizontal traverse head directly up through marginal holds before mantling over roof. Finish at Redemption anchor.

Up chossy slab to corner, then launch out left across the short hand traverse then up arete to horizontal traverse line and traverse left all the way out onto the hanging arete (crux). Finish up final easy headwall, or better still, just back climb from there.

The style of climbing might not appeal. As for Shelf Life to 1st BR then right and through roof into the ‘groove of pain’. Unconventional climbing leads up this to a no hands rest, then break right and finish up Trading Places.
