Watch Hazel Findlay Send a 5.13+R in Sweden

“There are so many places a climber has to go,” said Hazel Findlay. For years, she had heard about the perfect granite cracks in Bohuslän, Sweden, but only recently did she make the trip.

Teamed up with her friend and fellow Brit crusher Madeleine Cope, Hazel set out to see for herself what the Swedish crags had to offer. Luckily, Colette McInerney was there to capture the magic as Hazel roped up for one of the area’s fiercest testpieces—the bold Electric Avenue 5.13+R.

"The best experiences in climbing are the ones where you get to try your absolute hardest, when there are so many moments where you think you’re off but somehow, you’re still on. My ascent of Electric Avenue was very much like that and because of it, it will always be one of my more memorable hard ascents."
