2007 World Cup winner Natalya Gros has redpointed Histerija 8c+ at Misja Pec in Slovenia. Natalya came 1st in the 2007 World Cup leading competition and 3rd in the bouldering World Cup. She has previously climbed 8c with an ascent of Strelovod also at Misja Pec in 2006.

Natalya (now aged twenty three) started climbing at the age of six and began her competition career at the age of nine.

From her website:

"And I did it! I sent Histerija 8c+ today and reached the new milestone in my climbing career!

I first tried Histerija at the end of November last year when I had to choose a route in a central part of Mišja peč for our documentary movie that we are making. However the climbing season ended so I only returned to the route in the beginning of March. Not everything went according to plan because each time I tried it I was tired from the intense indoor training..."
