Spectacular 8C FA again by Dave Graham (36)

Dave Graham reports on Insta, including a video, that he has done the FA of Parzival 8C in Rocklands. (c) Chad Greedy "This amazing line baffled me the first time I saw it years ago; it looked super cool but I had no clue how to climb it. After stumbling upon it again during a hike this this season I saw astonished that it possibly could work, and if so, it would be a crazy epic two-part rig which sits at the base of this crazy disc shaped bloc suspended over a small canyon and summits directly up the prow." Dave has been one of the leading climbers for almost 20 years straight and is known for his visionary style finding and putting up hard core boulders. Next is Switzerland, back to US with Las Vegas and Bishop are on the list before heading back to spend the winter in Spain.
