German climber Alexander Megos has made the third ascent of Lucid Dreaming V15 / 8C at Bishop, USA.
Alexander Megos from Germany has clinched the third ascent of Lucid Dreaming, the superbly difficult highball on the famous Grandpa Peabody boulder at the Buttermilks close to Bishop, USA. Put up by America’s Paul Robinson in March 2010, this V15 / 8C problem was repeated for the first time by Daniel Woods in January 2014. Megos attempted the moves for three days in November 2014 before returning home to Germany, but on this trip he made sure he wouldn’t leave empty-handed: 8 intense days were needed now to bag his hardest boulder problem to date.
