Once Upon a Time in the Southwest 🧗🏽‍♀️climbing an E9 with next to no trad experience

Once Upon a Time in the Southwest is a beautiful, 50 meter slab on the Devonshire coast in England. It's a benchmark E9 (6c) trad climb known for its exposure, world-class techy slab movements, and of course, its flakey holds!

I'm the fourth woman (and first American) to climb it, after Hazel, Emma, and Maddy :) I still can't really believe I put it together before leaving the UK, it feels like a dream! I really couldn't have done it without Tom's help, so thank you for letting lil ol' me stand on your shoulders for this one.
