Alex Puccio has started the high alpine season at Mt Evans by doing Mental Masturbation (8A+), The Exfoliator (8A+) and King Critter Sit (8A+).
On Instagram she comments, The Exfoliator, "Always wanted to go check this one out and it didnโt disappoint. Really hard first move with bad feet and awkward body position. Short, crimpy and powerful so kinda my style! ๐ช๐ป๐ Thanks to @waterhouseclimb for starting the send train and giving me the motivation to follow suit. ๐"
Alex, the runner-up in the World Championship in 2014, has done 250+ boulders 8A and up, which is a female record.
