Alex Honnold free solo of Moonlight Buttress

Wow… just… wow… This is pretty impressive. For those that have seen King Lines, it’s the trad route that Sharma does with his mentor guy (Andy?). Sustained hard 12. And he did it before his 25 song playlist finished.

There are many divergent opinions out there about free-soloing, but I think it’s pretty safe to say that this dude is one strong climber.

Also, there’s some discussion here.

Yeah, I read an article about this guy in Rock & Ice, pretty fearless. His free solo of Astroman out in Yosemite put him on the map, but moonlight buttress? damn. He’ll probably solo Tombstone next

I think this puts my free solo of “Rock Harders” at the FFC to shame.
