Nathan Hall Continues Sends into New Year

Nathan Hall is a West Coast climber who has been touring American boulders since late November.

In December, Hall sent some hard problems at Bishop, the Kraft Boulders and Red Rocks, including Iron Fly V9, Angel Dyno V7, Timmy’s Problem V9, Fear of the Black Hat V9, Fountainhead V9, American Exotica V10 and Sould Stinger V9.

In the New Year, Hall wasted no time and climbed Brian’s Project V8, Haroun and the Sea of Stories V11 and Evilution (to the lip) V10, all in the Buttermilks.

After his send of Sea of Stories, he wrote on Sendage, “Incredible line, I’ve wanted to climb this thing since I first laid eyes on it five odd years ago. The top out was completely soaked but I managed to finish it anyhow, what a cool experience. Took a lot of work to put it together, I found it hard but that made the send well worth it.”

A few days later, and after his send of the classic Evilution, he wrote, “Another dream line for me, one which is my total anti-style and I wondered if I’d ever be able to do. Hard first move and aggressive crimping. Wish I had the juice to continue but I will one day.”
