| Climb Name | Type | Grade | # Ascents Recorded | Notes | Exclude Reason |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Zero | Trad climb | E7 | 6 | Livesey's original line was slightly indirect, moving right and then back left at the top of the route at about E6. This was then (unintentionally!) straightened out by Andy Pollitt on his second ascent [1], [2].

| Bibliographie | Sport route | 9b+ | 5 | First bolted by Ethan Pringle who quickly abandoned it as too hard for him. It took Alex a lot of effort over multiple years to finally make the first ascent. Initially proposed at 9c it later settled at 9b+ after a relatively quick repeat by Stefano Ghisolfi. |

| Burden of Dreams | Boulder problem | 9A | 5 | The first 9A boulder problem in the world. Nalle Hukkataival made the first ascent in October 2016 and the problem received significant attention from many of the strongest boulderers in the world (Toru Nakajima, Shawn Raboutou and Aidan Roberts to name a few) before Will Bosi made the second ascent in April 2023. The problem was initially found by Marko Siivinen:
In an interesting twist, the problem has become somewhat famous for replicas being made of it. Aidan Roberts made a 3D scan of the holds and problem on his phone during a working visit to try the problem, he then 3D printed the holds and worked with Core Climbing to cast copies of the holds in resin. Due to the relatively flat, consistent angle of the problem it was then possible to mount the holds indoors and effectively train for the real thing using the replica. Notably, Will Bosi trained on the replica for several sessions to train for the problem, then having done all the moves on the replica he booked a trip to try the real thing and made rapid progress, doing all the moves in his first session and then making the second ascent after ~12 sessions on the real thing.
