Dreamcatcher 9a by Mike Foley
Mike Foley, who previously has done several 9a's, has repeated Chris Sharma's Dreamcatcher 9a in Squamish. (c) Paul Nadler
"The end of an era. Decided to make the most of the longest day of the year and drove up to Squamish after work. Tired but psyched, I made solid effort only to fall slapping the finishing jug. After a short rest, I tied in one more time. With a few little mistakes I made it to final rest before the crux. Some deep breaths, a couple power screams, and a split second decision to change some beta and I found myself clipping the chains. This has been my longest and most mentally challenging endeavor of my climbing career. Hands down my proudest achievement. Mixed feelings of relief, excitement, and disbelief . So many thanks to everyone who has helped me along way."
