Alex Johnson is Critically Acclaimed

Alex Johnson making the first ascent of a new line in Mustang Canyon, Critically Acclaimed V9.

Johnson wrote on her Instagram, “I can’t believe there are still stunning unclimbed lines like this out here. On Tuesday, I was shown this gorgeous project. The crux is low, with a committing middle section, to a victory jug highball finish. I owe much gratitude to the guys who found and cleaned this thing and to Tom Moulin who showed me the boulder. I’m honoured and so excited to get the first ascent.”
