Weekend Whipper: Cameron Hörst on “Lungfish” (5.14b), Rifle, Colorado
The look on Hörst's face after this fall in Rifle, Colorado, says it all.
Tristin Crane told Rock and Ice that this was the “craziest fall that I have ever caught.”
Cameron Hörst—who has climbed 5.14d!—was climbing Lungfish, a 5.14b in Rifle, Colorado, when the fall happened.
“This was towards the end of our trip and conditions were hot and humid, and did not lack big whippers,” Tristin said.
As to what made the fall so weird? Tristin said, “Cam was too pumped to clip the draw closest to him and the clipping position for this draw is atrocious, so he decided to climb past it. Right as he did his foot blew o super hard without support from his other foot, which caused him to fall upside down.”
Happy Friday and climb safe this weekend!
