upper wall Rock Climbing

This is rock above sectors 1-9, which normally would be incorporated into a multi-pitch "adventure" route.
Which has been at least once, in August 2016.
--> See report below under Comments.

Also some sections of nice climbing can be reached by traversing in from the side, especially the north side -- and climbed independently as single pitch.
--> See under Highlights.

There is a large talus area between the top of sectors 1-9 below and the upper wall. The bad thing about this is that is disrupts the continuity of most full bottom-to-top multi-pitch routes. The good thing is that any route in lower sectors 1-9 can be linked with any route in the upper wall.

. . (previous name for this sector, "Grépon" was for the Aiguille du Grepon (or just "le Grepon"), which towers high over both the Envers region and the main Chamonix valley. Its summit can be reached by multi-pitch granite routes from both sides.

warning: The rock in this area has not been climbed much yet, and much of the rock is still breakable and loose -- so the belayer and other people should stand far away from underneath the climber.
