Watch Nina Williams make the first female ascent of Ambrosia, a 50-foot V11 (5.14 X) on the Grandpa Peabody Boulder in the Buttermilks, California. Ambrosia completes a trifecta for Williams, where she set out to climb a problem on each face of the Grandpa Peabody. In March of 2015, she climbed the 50-foot Footprints (V9) on the north face. In February of 2016, she climbed the 55-foot Evilution Direct (V11) on the south face. Read more about her ascent of Ambrosia.
