  • Researching Arête des Cosmiques - one of the highest 8a's in the world made me stumble upon a comment by Martina Cufar, Lead World Champion for 2001 who did the second ascent.
    The ace Slovenian climber says it all:
    "I took me quite some attempts to finally do it! I was breathless, empty but happy on the top! It really felt much harder to me than Digital crack on it's left. At 3800m 8a feels like 8b! A few days later I climbed an 8b in the valley and found this a lot easier, far less of a fight than 8a up on Mont Blanc!"

    This is so inspiring, holy shit. How long is the route/pitches? Trying to find info online about the routes on the tower, but it seems hard to find.

      It's just one pitch, around 35m in length. The approach is a bit tricky, though.

    Such an amazing line! How endurance heavy do you reckon the route is? It looks like the crux is at the start, but those granite aretes like the one at the top can be super tricky as well.

    • @molomono9481
      @molomono9481 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      At 3800 the crux is that you run out of breath/energy way faster than down in the valley.

      @Landolini 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @@molomono9481 I'm aware of that. I've been there before. That is of course an external factor that deserves some respect, but I was asking about the crux in terms of climbing moves.

    • @victorvaroshkin2648
      @victorvaroshkin2648  2 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      To me the boulder at the base felt like a 7a, followed by a nice rest with a knee bar and 7a+/b route above. Truly the crux was catching my breath all the way up though I had been guiding in the massif for more than 3 months already, including 5 summits of Mont Blanc and countless nights above 3600m a.s.l.

      @@victorvaroshkin2648 thanks for the reply dude! I haven't done any climbing above 7a at that altitude, but if you're saying that with your vast experience it might really come down to catching your breath. Have you done digital crack as well?

      @@Landolini Just one try but didn't like the extremely sharp holds. Also the climb is an ordinary slab climbing that I didn't find as interesting as this aesthetic edge. :) Probably I will try it at some point in the future again.

      Due to some external circumstances all the shots are done with just half an hour of drone flight so a lot of climb is missing. :)
