Burden of DreamsV17 (9A)

A forest boulder line at Lappnor that was developed over multiple years into what the film presents as the first boulder problem at the V17 (9A) level. The problem is defined by a single, very hard link that required hundreds of rehearsals and embodies the repetition and persistence of high-end bouldering. Its significance lies in its proposed grade and the prolonged personal obsession that culminated in the first ascent.
