Three more 9a's by Alex Garriga in Ilarduia
Alex Garriga, who the last five months has done five 9a+, including a personal downgrade of a confirmed 9b, has done three more 9a's in Ilarduia; Harropuza, Escaqueo de Mulero and Celedon. The 22-year-old finished his University degree one month ago so there should be plenty of room for more and harder ascents. (c) Alfonso Martinez
"Ilarduia is one of the best crags in Spain. Celedon is possibly the best route, a perfect endurance route. Now I am trying to climb as much as I can. Let's see what happens in the next months ๐๐"
