First ascent of Dresden
Dan Cappellini successfully sent his most recent project at Duty Dome on April 22, 2009. The pitch is located just left of Bombs Away and climbs an arete, slabs, crack and face for a full 60 meters to a two bolt anchor. The pitch contains a mixture of cracks and bolts for protection. He names the pitch Dresden because of its close proximity to Bombs Away. Here is a short explanation of what happened in Germany from Wikipedia.
The Bombing of Dresden by the British Royal Air Force (RAF) and United States Army Air Force (USAAF) between 13 February and 15 February 1945, twelve weeks before the surrender of the Armed Forces (Wehrmacht) of Nazi Germany, remains one of the most controversial Allied actions of the Second World War. The raids saw 1,300 heavy bombers drop over 3,900 tons of high-explosive bombs and incendiary devices in four raids, destroying 13 square miles (34 km2) of the city, the baroque capital of the German state of Saxony, and causing a firestorm that consumed the city centre. Estimates of civilian casualties vary greatly, but recent publications place the figure between 24,000 and 40,000.
The pitch is thought to be in the mid 5.11 range.
