20-year-old Laura Rogora has made the first repeat of Stefano Ghisolfi's Erebor 9b/+ at Eremo di San Paolo, Arco, Italy. The line is Italy's hardest sport route and Rogora's ascent is the hardest redpoint by a female climber to date.
Great to see the gap closing. I wonder if we'll see some more hard ascents now the Olympics is over and climbers like Laura have more time to climb outdoors?
