Watch Australian Lee Cossey pull the moves of The Red Project (5.14d), Australia’s hardest route. The route was bolted by Garth Miller
in 1999, and for the past 12 years Cossey has been projecting it on-and-off. In 2013, Cossey passed the torch to German powerhouse Alex Megos,
who nabbed the first ascent of The Red Project in three days of projecting. The route remains unrepeated.
