Michaela Kiersch ticks another two 8A+โ
Michaela Kiersch, who two weeks ago completed Dreamtime (8C) , has done Kings of Sonlerto (8A+) and Darkness (8A+) in Brione. (c) Brett Lowell
Can you tell us more about those two ascents?
Kings was on my dream list for a long time and it was cool to do it with Giuliano [Cameroni] spotting. Took me maybe 5 tries and I did the top on a rope before doing it from the bottom. On Darkness I flashed the right 7C and then maybe 5 tries or so for the 8A+.
