Heritage 8B/+ by Alizee Dufraisse
On Insta she says she needed 12 sessions. "Yesterday I arrived at the rock and I felt very good. For the first time, I knew that if I reached the hold at the mantle I would go for it. I made a try, relax, listening to Bob Marley and surprised myself to make my way to the top. The thing I am the most proud of is that despite a lot of uncertainty I took advantage of this moment, without hesitation… I just climbed… peacefully… with the support of @dave_graham_ 🥰"
What is next?
Staying here and boulder! I tried a little «From dirt... » in Chironico and I like it! But as we are closer to Bavona I think I'll also try some of the projects here, the boulders are amazing and always hard so that’s cool 🙃🔥.
