Noah Wheeler flashes 8B and does 8Cโs in a day
Noah Wheeler, who started 2025 by sending his first two 9Aโs, has had an amazing day in Cascade, starting with a second go ascent of The Hero of Ages (8C). โ14/15. Thinking a little harder than Final Empire? Would've flashed the stand but dabbed, then immediately fired the sit first go from start. Incredible to try hard climbs in my exact style!โ
Later he flashed Inglorious Bastards (8B), giving it a personal 8A+ grade. โGood one! Feels very consistent throughout.โ, and redpointed Death's End (8C), โSent a few goes after Hero of Ages in one of my best days yet! Mostly a temp/light crux, where, as it was 80/90 degrees out during the day, I had to wait until 12:30 - 1am for good temps, upon which the darkness makes it difficult to light up the crux holds sufficiently. Undoubtedly a mega line on mega rock.โ
How come you have not done any boulders the last six weeks and what about the night session?
Havenโt climbed outside in a while because its been so hot in CO! Summer is mostly just a period of training for me - board climbing over all else in order to ramp for Switzerland 2-3 months in the fall.
This trip to Idaho was a short vacation that happened to be near world-class bouldering, which we took advantage of. Since its so hot during the day, most of my sends came at 12-2am.

Ondra flashes 3*8C in two weeks
โI stopped focusing on competition bouldering after last yearโs World Cup in Prague, partly because I can already feel it on my body, especially in my shoulders. The modern competition style, with a lot of jumping from one hold to another, is very demanding for the shoulders.
Outdoor bouldering isโฆ
