Published on: 08/30/2023. A new YouTube video reveals the mindset behind James Pearson's "flow state" on his nails-hard—but ungraded— Bon Voyage. By Owen Clarke. In February 2023, British climber James Pearson finally took down Bon Voyage in Annot, France. Pearson—one of the world's leading traditional climbers—has tackled many

Taking their feedback into account, even in the absence of a second ascent, James now feels confident to propose the grade of E12 for Bon Voyage. In 2008, Pearson famously made the first ascent of The Walk of Life and graded it E12 7a, the hardest grade ever given to a route. Dave MacLeod made the second ascent and down-graded it to E9.

The Dawn Wall may be the hardest big wall in the world but I think it's a bit of a stretch to say it's the hardest route in the world. It's been up for two years and has already seen a repeat, done in excellent style in barely any time. I'm sure there are several other climbers currently capable of sending it as well.

Silence is arguably the hardest and most dangerous climbing route in the entire world. In fact, this treacherous 5.15d route has never been sent more than once. It took every ounce of the prodigal skills that Adam Ondra had to send "Silence," which is located in the Hanshallaren Cave of Flatanger, Norway.

"Adam has arrived In Stockholm to test his skills on the worlds hardest route - The Project." But even if they had, it hasn't been climbed so it's irrelevant! I could set a harder route at my local wall tomorrow and claim it's the hardest route in the world, and then you could go to your local wall and set one even harder the day after.

The route's inspiration, in part, came from The Project, established in 2017 at the Klättercentret in Stockholm, Sweden. That route, tentatively given 5.15d, was attempted by the world's best, including Adam Ondra, Alex Megos, and Stefano Ghisolfi. It went unsent for years and was then stripped.
