Oliphant's Dawn 8B+ | Climbing History

Climber	Style	Ascent Date	Suggested Grade
Fred Nicole	Boulder \| worked	Sep 2000
First ascent.
Three hard moves, the first one being the hardest of them with a real special gaston crimp. For the grade, I'm not sure since the effort is so short. But it is certainly one of the hardest single moves I've ever done. Conditions are really important for this climb: the place is hot and sunny and I did it really early one morning during what was one of my best years of bouldering.
