In January of this year, Michaela Kiersch was only the third woman to climb the 9a+ route la Rambla in Siurana. With this rare ascent, the strong American joins the illustrious group of 9a+ climbers. Only seven women worldwide have cracked this level so far. Now there is her inspection as a video.

On March 24, 2013, a murmur went through the climbing world when the then 19-year-old Alex Megos managed the world's first onsight ascent of a 9a climbing route with Estado Critico.
