Isabelle Faus strikes again with Spidey, (8B+)!

Isabelle Faus made a spring-time, low-profile ascent of, Spidey (8B+) in Clear Creek Canyon. The 30-year-old, who did her first 8B+ in 2015, has now done seven, and says on Youtube that she thinks this one is the hardest boulder she has ever done. "Spidey gets harder with every move, the first half is v9, then a few moves of v11 climbing, and ending with a hard v13. It looks long but def more of a power boulder than an endurance climb." The roof boulder which Griffin Whiteside put up finishes with a very dynamic 360 rotation.
