Ground Zero 8c (9a) by Jonathan Siegrist

Jonathan Siegrist, who previoulsy has done 44 routes 9a to 9b, has made the first repeat of Jason Campbell's Ground Zero in Mt Charleston from 2002. Interestingly he suggests an upgrade from 8c to 9a (c) Shaina Savoy "Jason took 8c... which is completely insane because it adds a v10/11 (7C+/8A) boulder problem directly into the crux of Hasta La Vista (14c) (8c+) without any rest. It almost seems like he intended to sandbag the route." In 2015, Jonathan did the opposite, saying Era Vella, a confirmed 9a at the time, was more like 8c to him as it only took him three tries. On his Insta he says Ground Zero took him "a good number of days".
