Five Years of First Ascents in the Grampians
Over five years of first ascents from Buandik in 2009 to The Outsider in 2014, Mike and Dave Kellermann, along with Mike Forward
and Sophie Vivian, have been on a rampage.
They have been exploring and developing the bouldering—hundreds of new problems—in Grampians National Park, Australia for more than
15 years. This video features a handful of recent “King Lines.”
