Silence Sport route 9c 4

Silence is a route established by Adam Ondra in 2017. It is the first ever sport route to be graded french 9c, assuming repeat ascentionists confirm the grade.

The crux of the route is a notoriously strange boulder problem. There are a few sequences, but Adam's original method involves feet-first jamming through the slopey crack.
