Dave Graham Establishes Hard Boulder in Switzerland

Graham headed to Fionnay after Sisu Masters for some unfinished business

David Graham has made the first ascent of Foundation’s Edge (V15,) at Fionnay, near Verbier, Switzerland. He headed south to Switzerland, after the Sisu Masters, where he had unfinished business from a previous trip.  First, the weather thwarted his attempts once again as it started snowing and it seemed winter had already arrived, but then things changed for the better and he managed to make the first ascent of the new V15. He is now working on a new start, according to Dave, the whole line would probably add up to a 30 move V15 or V16.
