Nu World 9a+/b FA by Jonathan Siegrist
Thursday, 15 October

"All together I think I probably tried the route almost 50 times over 5 weeks. It took me many sessions to figure out the cryptic method through the bottom 7 bolts (it’s super resistant here - barely even a spot to clip, and absolutely no stopping for 30 moves). After this there is a small rest, and then for ‘Nu World’ you climb to the right and up another 25 meters of beautiful and hard climbing, maybe ~8c. The direct will go straight up for another 30+ meters and there are several very hard boulder problems with worse rests than on Nu World. I’m looking forward to trying it next season! But for now I need a break from the 90 minute approach... The direct finish will be crazy hard - if I can ever do the bottom again..."
