8c+ MP by Fabian Buhl

Fabian Buhl, a world class boulderer who lately has been focusing more on routes, has done the first repeat of Alex Huber's seven pitches Nirwana 8c+ on Sonnwendwand at Loferer Steinplatte. In total the route is 250 m and has just 17 bolts. There are just a couple of 8c+ MP in the world. Fabian projected it six days included half by himself walking 1 - 2 hours in snow before he could start rapelling to the 50meter long 8c+ pitch. "Huge respect to Alex, it is just an amazing route and we hope the video will be great." From Facebook: "I worked it over several days, yet it was totally unexpected! I was attracted by the steepness of the wall and it´s dynamic and technical climbing. We just wanted to film some tries for a upcoming movie project, but now Stefan Schlumpf & Diego Defilla got the full ascent."
