Cadance Hurt does No More Greener Grasses (8A+)

Cadance Hurt, with two 8Aโ€™s under her belt, has sent No More Greener Grasses (8A+) in Mount Blue Sky. โ€First day this season oh my godddd.โ€

Can you tell us more about the ascent?
Iโ€™ve put two small sessions into No More Greener Grasss (one in 2023 and one in 2024) without ever having been able to stick moves, but today I was able to send within an hour with perfect temps and the perfect crew. After months dealing with a torn pulley, self doubt and other sporadic injuries it was so rewarding.

What is your climbing background?
Iโ€™ve been climbing since I was eight in Colorado (competitively and outside) and work as an elite coach as well. I grew up inspired by all the women capable of sending 8A+ and it always seemed like a reach to accomplish it myself, so this send is meaningful is so many ways.
