Mucho muschio 8a+ by Cathy Wagner (54)
Cathy Wagner has done her 8a+ #161, Mucho muschio in Pian Bernardo. (Google translate) "In this superb variant of Mucho Gusto, it is the final boulder under the chain that makes the difference. It is true that the many knee bars lead to it and we leave before the crux a bit psycho from the top which really simplifies the challenge and even me, I was a coward in the block."
In the last month, the 54-year-old has also done seven 8a's, out of which five second go. In total she has done 732 routes 8a and harder which should be most in the world for any female.
