BTRM 8a+ by Cathy Wagner (53)

Cathy Wagner has done No sombra 8a and BTRM 8a+ in Rodellar. "For me, a hard and logical link-up starting on BTR and ending with the crucial top section of Montserrat, much better than the chipped ending of BTR. One of the best routes for sure!" In total, the 53 year old has done 712 routes 8a and harder the last 25 years out of which possibly one fourth second go.
