Burden of Dreams, originally known as the Lappnor project, had been on Nalle Hukkataival’sradar since the summer of 2013. After returning home from a climbing trip in Australia, a friend introduced Nalle to a problem they had found and, although the imposing boulder presented too much of a challenge for them, they thought it might be the perfect 8C...

His approach to projecting hard climbs is a methodical and logical one. It begins with working on each move of the problem in isolation in order ...

By mid-2015, Nalle had all the beta and physical ability to send the project. However, with a notoriously difficult project like this, there was a magnitude of factors outwith his control that needed to align in order for him to claim the long-awaited ascent. The rock and air temperature, precipitation, humidity, wind chill, and skin condition all had to be perfect in order to complete a problem that was already on the limits of what is possible. In the Fall of 2015, Nalle knew the project wa...

Burden Of Dreams è il primo 9A boulder del mondo, ed è stato liberato dall'arrampicatore finlandese Nalle Hukkataival dopo quattro anni di tentativi.
Il climber della provincia dell'Aquila aveva trovato una sequenza tutta sua nella parte centrale, dove utilizza un piccolo dentino per tallonare sulla mano sinistra di partenza, prima di infortunarsi purtroppo nel 2022. Ha dovuto ricominciare lentamente da capo, riprendere confidenza con quelle micro tacche.
