@jackmasel reaches for a crimp on the black-streaked, impeccable, overhanging glory of Groove Train (33/8c/5.14b) on Taipan Wall. @lizzyclimbs on belay.

Totem pole, Tasmania, Australia. Truly one of the all-time most amaze-balls things to climb. 📷Matthieu Laloup.

The Moai, Fortescue Bay, Tasmania. Chris Davis dances his way up Burning Spear, 22 (5.11). Does anyone have a plausible geological explanation why there is a single pillar of rock on this part of the coast? Beautiful, wild, but fairly mysterious.

Climbing above the smashing waves and raw power of the sea is an incredibly invigorating experience. Here, Matthieu Laloup nears the top of The Moai, a single freestanding rock pillar above the sea at Fotescue Bay, Tasmania Peninsula. He is on Ancient Astronaut, a bolted 24/5.12a that leads to the top.

Yosemite and California granite, Utah sandstone and Canadian ice make up my #2017bestnine.
