Charlie Woodburn has just made the first repeat of Skye Wall, E8 6b/c. The route took Charlie three attempts spread over three years. As it's name suggests, the route is found on the Isle of Skye and was first climbed by Dave Birkett in 2007 (UKC News Report).

The news was broken on Facebook by Lyon Outdoor:

Charlie is on good form this year, having had a good trip to Ireland earlier in the year (UKC News Report).

We hope to bring you more information on Charlie's ascent.
