<p>Jerry Moffatt was at the forefront of British climbing throughout the eighties and nineties. Jerry established many hard firsts in the UK, Germany, France and USA including historic ascents such as <a href="/climb/522" rel="noopener noreferrer">The Face</a>, <a href="/climb/310" rel="noopener noreferrer">Revelations</a> and <a href="/climb/66" rel="noopener noreferrer">Liquid Ambar</a>, all at the cutting edge of difficulty at the time they were established. </p>
<p>In the early eighties Jerry pushed the mental side of climbing to the limit, onsight soloing mountain extremes, making a traumatising ascent of <a href="/climb/713/master's-wall" rel="noopener noreferrer">Master's Wall</a> (E7) and soloing pretty much every hard classic on <a href="/crag/4/dinas-cromlech" rel="noopener noreferrer">Dinas Cromlech</a>, up to <a href="/climb/530/right-wall" rel="noopener noreferrer">Right Wall</a> (E5), in a single day. </p>
<p>A trip to America in 1983 saw him onsight some of the hardest routes there, including <a href="/climb/4306/psycho!-(free)" rel="noopener noreferrer">Psycho! (Free)</a> (E6) and <a href="/climb/6047/genesis" rel="noopener noreferrer">Genesis</a> (E6). </p>
<p>Jerry was a pioneer of training for climbing, initially spending countless hours doing reps in scrappy limestone caves, then building one of the first cellar boards in the world. </p>
<p>Jerry was also an early proponent of bouldering in its own right. From early ascents on <a href="/crag/2282/the-bowderstone" rel="noopener noreferrer">The Bowderstone</a> he went on to put up a host of hard classics such as <a href="/climb/157" rel="noopener noreferrer">The Ace</a> at <a href="/crag/101/stanage-plantation" rel="noopener noreferrer">Stanage</a> and <a href="/climb/546" rel="noopener noreferrer">Dominator</a> in Yosemite.</p>

Jerry Moffatt was at the forefront of British climbing from the early eighties to mid-nineties. Along with [Ben Moon](/climber/130) Jerry established many hard firsts in the UK, Germany, France and USA including historic ascents such as [The Face](/climb/522), [Revelations](/climb/310) and [Liquid Ambar](/climb/66), all at the cutting edge of difficulty at the time they were established.
Jerry was an early proponent of bouldering in it's own right. From early ascents on [The Bowderstone](/crag/2282/the-bowderstone) he went on to put up a host of hard classics such as [The Ace](/climb/157) at [Stanage](/crag/101/stanage-plantation) and [Dominator](/climb/546) in Yosemite.

<p>Lynn Hill is one of the most accomplished rock climbers of all time. Her pioneering ascents in the 1980s and '90s culminated in the first free ascent of <a href="/climb/6215/the-nose" rel="noopener noreferrer">The Nose</a> on <a href="/crag/8023/el-capitan" rel="noopener noreferrer">El Capitan</a> – one of the most coveted challenges in climbing – in 1993. The infamous Changing Corners pitch is a masterclass of technical climbing which continues to challenge the very best today. Hill returned the following year to complete the whole climb in under 24 hours.</p>
<p>Hill was the first woman to climb 7c, 7c+ and 8b+, and was at top of the comp game throughout the 1980s.</p>

<p>Hill has experienced only one major accident in her climbing career. On May 9, 1989, she fell during a climb in Buoux, after forgetting to tie in, she fell 85 ft (25 m) into a tree, and was knocked unconscious, dislocated her left elbow and broke a bone in her foot. She had been training hard for the World Cup and had to stop competing for a few months to recover; she was devastated to miss the first World Cup in the sport. However, only six weeks after her fall, she was back climbing.</p>
