New V15 for Dave Graham

By Dougald MacDonald

Dave Graham has climbed another possible 8c (V15) boulder problem, according to www.8a.nu. From Dirt Grows the Flowers is on the granite boulders of Chironico, Switzerland. "I found the boulder this fall and have been trying to figure out how to climb it for the whole year, off and on," Graham told 8a.

As for the grade, he added, "For me it was 8c, for sure. But it can very well be 8b+ for some other person. Although I previously declared having figured out the grading thing, I would have to say right not I am much more confused about everything than before!"

Earlier this year, Graham established The Story of Two Worlds at Cresciano, Switzerland, which he called the "new standard" for V15.
