We are very excited to announce that Jared Nelson sent Superman (5.14c) yesterday on the Big Show in Cheakamus Canyon, Squamish, BC. This was the last climb Jared needed to do before completing all established lines on The Big Show which is comprised of one 13c, two 13d’s, two 14a’s, two 14b’s, and two 14c’s.
On the first attempt of the day after warming up in the boulders, Jared fell twice on the second move of pulse, only to come down and start again. After a the long journey past the crux of Pulse (5.14a) and Captain America (5.14b), Jared rested for a long time in the alcove before entering the final diagonal of Heat (5.13d), looking as though he just walked through the moves.
Congratulations Jared! What a summer!
