Stefano Ghisolfi, who three weeks ago sent The full journey (9b) in Margalef, has repeated Chris Sharmaโs Sleeping Lion (9b) in Siurana. In total the Italian has done 14 routes 9b and beyond. His goal is to send two more 9bโs in different crags during this trip. (c) Sara Grippo
How was the process taking it down?
I tried it the first time in November 2023 at the Siurana climbing festival. Them I came back this year and I started trying it again at the same time as The Full Journey. I did a total of 11 days on it, I fell 3 times at the top crux.
Which crags and 9b routes are coming up next?
Santa Linya for Neanderthal first, then Oliana for Fight or Flight.
