James McHaffie has made the first ascent of an E10/8c+ involving a direct start to Mission Impossible E9 at Gallt Yr Ogof in Gwynedd, North Wales, which he has named Yma O Hyd. The new start follows a thin seam line up to a 'Rose' cross-through move to eventually join Mission Impossible at its cruxes.

Just test-drove the topo editor that @bohwaz@mamot.fr fixed up, and it's working great, nice work!! Scaling is a bit off; I had to scale up pretty much everything (lines, marks, text) by 200-300%, but that's due to images being so huge nowadays. Looking forward to updating my photos of The Crag Next Door with proper topos! [image: 1730914274412-dilligaf.png]
