8B again by Katharina Saurwein

Katharina Saurwein,#5 in the Boulder WC 2015, reports on Facebook that she has done The Shining in RMNP which was her third 8B the last year. - Whoop! After falling a bunch of times on the normally not so hard ending of 'The Shining' 8B, I finally sent! This beautiful problem sits very high up in Chaos Canyon at an altiutude of ~3000 meters and is very often wet. It took a little patience, but was definitely worth it! Psyched for less hiking... Thanks to @Jonglassberg for the photo and support!
