Will Bosi on Silence, Empath on Gear, Amity Sends Pre-Muir Wall

Some big climbing news hitting the web today, here's some of the highlights.

Will Bosi stepped into the Norwegian cave with cameras rolling and Silence looming. His new video shows the raw, methodical battle against Adam Ondra’s 5.15d—the world’s first—every attempt a study in precision, frustration, and the relentless curiosity that keeps him returning to impossible climbs.

Across the Atlantic, Amity Warme topped out the 33–pitch Pre-Muir Wall (5.13c/d) on El Capitan after days of exposure, fatigue, and resolve. She called it one of the hardest efforts of her career, a fight threaded with gratitude for the chance to test herself on terrain that demanded everything and still offered moments of grace.

In Italy, Filip Schnek clipped the chains on Erebor (5.15b). Stress, perfectionism, and repeated setbacks shadowed his process, but the send—hard-won and emotional—made the turbulent journey feel worthwhile.

And in Brione, Sam Weir unlocked Giuliano Cameroni’s Poison the Well (V16) after roughly 25 sessions. A double-bump crux at the limit of his reach stalled him for months, until a summer of training flipped impossibility into consistency. Even then, he fell more than a dozen times after sticking the crux, each attempt sharpening the next, until the final link finally sealed what he described as a “9A effort.”

Hamish McArthur and Noah Beek visited the Sisu Project in Finland, video of them looking at it below, history here.

Together, these climbs form a quiet story of obsession and return—athletes meeting their limits not once, but over and over, until something
