Chris Sharma has redpointed a new sport route among the giant granite boulders below The Chief in Squamish, B.C., and says it’s “probably 14c or 14d.” The 70-foot line, called Dreamcatcher, diagonals across a severely overhanging face on Kacademon Rock. Sharma bolted the climb with Sonnie Trotter and worked on it for a few weeks this summer, when he got to the last move, “an all-out dyno,” before falling, according to Josh Lowell, who filmed the climb. He returned last week and redpointed the climb Sept. 23 on his second day of attempts.
