Still at it 15 years after he rose to the top of the climbing world, Ben Moon has made the third ascent of The Ace, a V13 gritstone boulder problem at Stanage, England. The problem, a sit start to The Joker (V11), was established by Jerry Moffatt in 2000 and had been repeated only once, by Scottish strongman Malcolm Smith.
