Moonshine 9a by Cameron Hörst (18)

Cameron Hörst, son to one of the leading climbing authors/trainer Eric, has done his first 9a, Moonshine at Wild Iris after some ten days of projecting. "It's a Frankenjura-style route--steep, powerful on small pockets", says his father who also took the picture. Video Interestingly, Cameron has lately only been climbing seven months a year as he also is a successful high school football player. The approach has been multi-sport and this is also a message Eric tries to spread as a trainer. From his Insta, we can see that Cameron also prepared himself by working on a replica.
