The Nest 8C by Sam Weir

Sam Weir has done his third 8C, The Nest in Red Rocks. Video is coming up and detailed story and more pics on his Insta. "Best boulder I have ever climbed on. Nice v10/11 intro into a one move v12 to a finsh v8 for me. I ended up using daniels beta which uses a 1/4 pad crimp and a one arm pull up. I was not sure this was going to go with all the bad weather but I got one lucky day and it went all nice and chill. Thanks John Sara and Pablo for all the sike and hiking up to wet and un-cliambable condition. Upper end 8C I believe. The BAR. Kinda of like Hypno where it is easy to get close to sending this but its NAILS to actually send."
