8B+ again by Janja Garnbret as well as an 8B 2nd Go

Janja Garnbret reports on Instagram that she has sent L'oppio dei climbers (8B+) and Il trono (8B) in Val Daone. The latter she, โ€gave it a good flash go, didnโ€™t work out but sent it second go.โ€

At 26, the Slovenian climber is widely regarded as the greatest female competition climber in history. Now, she has also proven her dominance on rockโ€”across routes, boulders, and even onsight ascentsโ€”despite spending the past decade almost entirely focused on competitions. The question that remains is when, not if, she will measure herself against the best men in the sport.
