I agree, this is HUGE! One of the hardest boulders in the world, hardest boulder grade ever climbed by a saffa, third ascent of one of the worlds most famous boulders...the superlatives continue.....this kind of stuff is of significance beyond even the climbing community news.

Nice one Arjan!

Terribly sorry Nick, I was waiting for the images to come through this morning (I didn't want to report it without the images)... then I went up and added an additional bolt to the (single) lower off on Castles in the Sky.
Hows that for an excuse? :roll: :P

Thanks Stefan for posting in the mean time :thumleft:
