What does it really mean to climb a 9A boulder problem? What does it require to breach the absolute maximum, so intense and extreme that it breaks into a new realm of difficulties on the bouldering scale? And what does it take to unwaveringly pursue an objective - that borders between the possible and impossible - for years on end? Nalle Hukkataival may know the answers to these questions, for towards the end of October the 30-year-old climber from Helsinki finally made the first ascent of Burden of Dreams at Lappnor in Finland. Five moves moves, distilled into four meters that produced the world's first 9A boulder problem.
