Sera Gearhart does Blackout (8B)
Sera Gearhart, the #2 in the VL ranking game, has sent Blackout (8B) in Joe's Valley (UT). โFell too many times trying to cross under to the jug before getting smart, crimp card retained. Conditions matterโ(c) John Oungst
Can you tell us more about the ascent and the number of sessions needed?
I tried Blackout in the spring hoping I could do it in warm conditions before the end of the season. The crimps are really sharp so coming back in the fall it felt like a different boulder. Much easier in the cold! Overall took me a few sessions between both seasons.
