Went up (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

scaled

'went up' is the definition.
(scaling is a kind of going up)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for scaled that I've seen before include "Climbed - peeled off" , "like a snake" , "Surmounted" , "Climbed, or removed fish flakes" , "Cleaned fish" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
