Last April Britain's Mathew Wright successfully headpointed Rhapsody, the E11 7a trad climb located at Dumbarton Rock in Scotland, first ascended by Dave Macleod in 2006.
At the time the route ushered in a new era of difficulties in Great Britain and with its whopping E11 grade - the equivalent of 8c+ climbing but on gear - it was the most difficult in the British trad system.
Currently there is only one E12 worldwide, Bon Voyage put up by James Pearson at Annot in France.
