9a and 8c+ FAs by Matthias Schiestl

Matthias Schiestl has done the FAs of Hias-Line 8c+ and Monkey Line 9a in Zillertal. (c) Flo Murning I tried the 8c+ for 7 days since July. It was a very old project, super dirty and a lot of work to figure out the moves. The route starts with a hard boulder problem and it is also the same start as the 9a. The hardest part is the beginning of the route, 14 moves around 8b boulder, when you climb the 8c+ then you finish with a 8a+ route and the 9a you continue to the right with an 8A boulder and a 7c+ route at the end.
