9a FA by Mathieu Bouyoud in La Balme again

Mathieu Bouyoud has done the FA of Apocalypse Now in La Balme which is is seventh 9a of the last 12 months and puts him at #4 in the 8a ranking game. © Amandine Lonchambon "It's an extension to "Déclac" 8c/+ in La Balme de Yenne in a big roof. I bolted this route 2 years ago. This year the conditions are exceptional. All is dry and the condition is perfect for climbing. This winter I bolted a lot of projects in the cave. So I have a lot of work now...I hope to make another lines this summer."
