Three 8b+'s and an 8c by Hugo Meignan (16) and 8b+ by Toma (15)

Hugo Meignan has during the last week done three 8b+ out of which Ixeia, second go, in Rodellar. The 16 year old has also osighted four routes 7c+ and 8a. Hugo is the oldest of five climbing Meignan siblings and soon we will get the nice story from his father Lucas. Thoma Meignan, see picture, has done his first 8b+, Ixeia in Rodellar. The last months he has also stepped up his game by doing three 8b's. Update: Today, Hugo did his first 8c, Pata Negra.
