Michael Piccolruaz does Weiße Rose (9a)

Michael Piccolruaz, who was #16 in the Tokyo Olympics, has done Weiße Rose (9a) in Schleier Wasserfall. Alex Huber put it up in 1994 as an 8c+ and then Adam Ondra made the first repeat in 2008 suggesting an upgrade, which later Jakob Schubert confirmed.

Another dream come true! Such a historical route. It means a lot to me that I got to do the 4th ascent of this kingline at this beautiful place that has become so dear to me! Love the Schleier!
