Climber Style Ascent Date Suggested Grade
First ascent. 7 sessions.

Grading is always hard, but this line felt considerably harder than any of the other lines I’ve done in Portugal or of similar style lines elsewhere. So 8C+ seems right to me. However, the unique style of moves and low angle definitely makes it hard to grade this one! [1]
