Autumn Lloyd climbs Euro Trash (8A+)

Autumn Lloyd has ticked Euro Trash (8A+) in Little Cottonwood Canyon (UT).

Can you tell us more about the ascent and your climbing background?
I live in western CO and I went to LCC for the first time on June 16th to take advantage of some unseasonably cool temps. Euro Roof (7C+) went down pretty fast so I checked out Euro Trash and managed to work out the beta and get it done in a couple hours, which was honestly really shocking given that Euro Trash was only the third V12 Iโ€™ve ever tried and the first Iโ€™ve done. The movement was great and it was nice to find a hard boulder which suits us shorter climbers. Pity about the glued crimp, but it's still an incredible line.

I am 19 and Iโ€™ve been around climbing my whole life through my parents but have been climbing seriously since I was 13. I grew up in Lander WY until I was 12 and have lived in Grand Junction CO ever since. My dad, David Lloyd, and I spent many years climbing established lines and developing bouldering around WY, CO, and UT, which was an incredible introduction to the sport.
