Hot news from Yosemite is that Belgian climber, Seb Berthe, has just made the fourth ascent of the Dawn Wall on El Cap.

Flashed another 5.12a this morning. I think my default assumption is now an onsight on a 12a, which was absolutely not the case a few months ago. This feels great and I’m really proud of my progress. I took a big step back in the last few years (gym closures, belay partners leaving etc) so it feels great to be back. #climbing
