8B again by Anna Stöhr

Anna Stöhr reports on Facebook that she has done Meadowlark lemon 8B in Red Rocks, which is considered a real stellar problem. However, a couple of months ago, it turned out that it had been chipped but that has not affected the grade. "Yihaaaaaa!!!!! Superpsyched that i climbed this beautiful bloc, the stand start of meadowlark lemon, v13, today. After falling off the slab yesterday, I pulled myself together and climbed to the top. interesting to experience what 'forced restdays' can do to one's motivation...!" Anna is the best female boulderer competitor in the history. Among other successes, she has won two world championships. In 2016, she competed in just five events and nevertheless finished with a bronze in Vail. Previously, the Austrian has done a handful of 8B's.
