The Gift | 8c Multi-pitch

7 pitches.

So named because the first four pitches were established by Pio Jutz, but after being unable to make progress on the upper section he gifted the line to Alex Luger.

As I managed to grab this hold, completely pumped, I was overwhelmed with the greatest feeling of happiness that day. It was still thrilling to climb up to the anchor, knowing there were still two challenging pitches left. But anyway, I knew I had a good chance to send it that day.

I love this kind of tension in climbing—those moments where everything has to be perfect, where you have to be 100% focused and just fight your way through. [2]
