We are pleased to announce that Hans Christian Montenegro is making use of all the training he did this winter. Hans recently sent The Hypothetical Low (v12), first discovered by Israel Cruces and put up by Tim Doyle, located at Porteau Cove.

In other news, Stu Smith made a rare ascent of ‘Super Panini’ (5.13c) earlier in the week and then made a quick ascent of Back Door Santa (5.13c) in Murrin Park. Stu has been gaining momentum over the year and this is surely not the last time we will hear from him.
Finally, Vancouver-based climber, Hamish Thomson completed Primal Urge (v10) yesterday on his third go. This was Hamish’s first double digit boulder problem (in which there will be many more to come!). Congratulations!
