Alcove Wall

Starting at Alcove Corner, traverse the wall to end up on the starting hold of Raw Terror.

Continue the Alcove Traverse along the Only the Good Die Young Traverse for a very substantial trek.

One of Baring Head's steepest routes. Starting on the big jug in the middle of the roof, battle upward, staying on the overhanging wall. Do not use the wall on your right., nor the juggy undercling. After five or six moves, head left to a pinch on the left arete (about 40cm above the undercling), cross over to a positive two-finger pocket for the right hand and then pull around onto the slab. A spotter is advisable.

As for Raw Terror but force yourself to stay on the overhanging wall until it peters out, requiring you to slap for the juggy ledge feature at the top. Drop off or top out.

A Raw Terror eliminate. Don't use the pinch out left above the overlap and take a good spotter.

Sit start with hands in the crack and crimp your way up until feet are standing on the slab.

A test of power and cunning. Climb the hanging arête feature from a low start on the obvious triangular jug. Don't use the slab below this for hand, feet, or any other body part. Contrived, but worth one burn.

Delightful, but gets harder near the top as the flake peters out. Either do a committing move up and left to a good jug, or finish up Alcove Wall.

Climb the wall left of the corner. At about two-thirds height, veer left and lay off a good flake (a bit committing).

Climb the low-angle corner.

Start at a flake in the centre of the face and climb just right of the arête. Good flakes around the arête give some pleasant moves.

Strenuous moves up the right side of the wall lead to good jugs at two-thirds height.
