Brett Lowell reports on Facebook with a great picture that Kevin Jorgeson has done the 16th Dyno 9a pitch meaning he is just three 60 metres 8a+' behind Tommy Caldwell. Later some ten pitches up to 7c are left before they will summit writing climbing history.

Two days ago, Kevin was a long way behind his partner Tommy Caldwell when he was going for his 11th go over seven days of pitch #15. For pitch #16, Tommy opted for the 8b+ Loop pitch meanwhile Kevin choose the Dyno 9a pitch.

In comparison to the previous hardest Big Walls and even multi pitches in the world, The Dawn Wall is just in another amazing league. 31 pitches in total out of which; Three 9a's (two for Kevin), ten between 8a+ and 8c. Taking into account that they have spent six years including being injured up there and that also most of the protection is trad gear, what they are about to do could be to set a new world record.
