Climber Style Ascent Date Suggested Grade

In 1991 it was different with artificial holds. In south of Europe it was just normal, even on top routes. There are so many artificial holds on the hardest routes from the 90'ies, even Action Directe, Hubble and La rose etc. I feel very bad for that period and it's a shame and especially for the balcony which is soo unique. I could at least for my self "repair" and rehabilitate my self. I have to get the holds out of one more artificial line and make the rock look as "beauty" as possible. This one will not go free natural. [1]

New accents suggest 9a for the climb.
