9a by Markus Jung in Frankenjura

Markus Jung has done his third 9a and his first in Frankenjura, The Elder Statesman. "Huge much fun sending it! too many times it was wet.. the weather made me crazy! happy to climbed it in almost dry shape :)" In total there are 24 routes 9a and 9a+ in Frankenjura out of which all but six have been opened by Markus Bock. In comparison to other 9a's, the Frankenjuta ones are seldom repeated suggesting the grades are pretty hard here. There are also at least ten projects 9a and harder out of which half of them are open projects.
