Matt Segal has made the 4th ascent of one of the hardest traditionally protected crack climbs in the world, Cobra Crack (5.14) in Squamish, BC. It was first climbed by Sonnie Trotter a few years back with Nicolas Favresse and Ethan Pringle making quick repeats earlier this summer. Click here to see video of Trotter working the line. So who’s next on Beth Rodden’s Meltdown??
