I just did the first repetition of this short but hard route, after @simonlorenzi‘s first ascent in November 2019.
The crux is right above the third quickdraw. It is said to be a hard 8c, but some of the moves are definitely harder than moves you would usually find in 8c’s.
Now I’m working on the second part: continuing the traverse to the left – instead of topping out on the right as I did in the video – and going all the way to the top of the overhang (not visible on the video).
It hasn’t been climbed yet and is thought to be 9a. I’m super excited about the challenge! ?
Thanks @sven.lempereur.3 and @sebertheclimber for telling me about this route!
