First climbed in 2008, left ungraded after the first ascent, and unrepeated for more than sixteen years, Echo Wall is a route that has always had an air of mystery about it.
In this week's Friday Night Video, we follow Jacques Beaudoin as he seeks to make the first ascent of a thin 8b finger crack, Mother Earth, in Newnes Plateau, Australia.

I top roped with the Petzl 8003 full body harness today and it worked great! Would recommend for folks who want to continue #climbing while pregnant(And yes, this is apparently my announcement to the void about being pregnant. The internet says my baby will be banana sized next week)
This is the second ascent of the 140-metre route since it was opened in 2022
