Katy Whittaker on sights two 7c sport routes in one day


Katy Whittaker has been on excellent form over the last couple of days and the news just in is that on Tuesday the 7th of July she onsighted two 7c sport routes.

Only a handful of women in the UK have onsighted 7c and Katie’s on sight of two 7c routes in one day certainly mean that she is a force to watch over the next couple of years ahead.

The two 7c routes that Katy climbed were Dominatrix 7C and Biological Need 7C which are both found on Kilnsey Crag in Yorkshire.

In addition to this Katy also repointed a 7c+ last Sunday at Lower Pen Trywn in North Wales.

Keep up the great work Katy!
