Black Label 8c+ (9a) and Space Oddity 8c+ by Moritz Welt (18)

Moritz Welt has done Black Label in Frankenjura logging the 9a as 8c+. "8c+/9a, a few sessions over the last years, two more this year." Three weeks ago, the 18-year-old did the FA of Space Oddity 8c+ in Frankenjura. The picture is from last year when he projected it. "At the moment climbing here in Frankenjura is allowed, but only with one contact person and closest family. So we are not able to meet a lot of people at the moment or go in groups. I also try to prevent injuries by not taking any risk. When I did Black Label I was only there with my dad who belayed me. Due to the restrictions, there couldn't be any photographer to take pictures."
