8b+ by Cameron Hörst (11)

Cameron Hörst has had a nice week in Red River Gorge where he did his first 8b, Ultra Perm, and his first 8b+, God's Own Stone. "Awesome line--and great name--my first 5.14a! Felt slightly easier than Ultra Perm for me, but it fit my size and strengths better than Ultra Perm. Thanks to Odub for suggesting that it might be good to skip the crux clip. (Sent this on my 4th go--Ultra Perm took me 7 tries.)" Little brotherJonathan (9) has done his first 7c+, Skinboat. "My dad, Eric, has been climbing for a long time, so I've been climbing since I was a really small." Eric Hörst is one of the most experienced climbing trainers who has published many training books during the last 20 years.
