Sonnie Trotter getting the third ascent of Master Blaster (5.13c/d) in Zion National Park. From Trotter:
The climb was first freed by Seattle bad ass Ben Gilkinson, and Lauren Lee and I made the Second and Third ascents, back to back. It was a great experience because the exposure was stunning, but the cracks size, forced me to learn ring locks in a roof. It was likely the most painful experience I’ve had on a rope, but the line was so clean and steep I just had to suck it up.
