Dave MacLeod

Dave MacLeod (born 17 July 1978) is a Scottish rock climber. In April 2006, he established the climb ''Rhapsody'' on Dumbarton Rock which, at a grade of E11 7a, was possibly the hardest traditional climbing route in the world at the time, and looks set to be confirmed as the most difficult in Scotland.
''Rhapsody'' is the true finish to the line of ''Requiem'', graded E8 6b. Requiem was climbed in 1983 by Dave Cuthbertson and was one of the hardest rock climbs in the world at the time. It follows a crackline which fades out to a seam at half height. Requiem follows a flake heading rightwards to finish, while Rhapsody climbs the line of the crack all the way to the top. The top half of the crack gives 8c+ climbing and takes no more protection. MacLeod took many long falls from this runout, three from the last move in which he fell 70 feet and injured himself by hitting the rock at the end of the fall. In 2008 Steve McClure made the third ascent of Rhapsody and confirmed the grade. The ascent of Rhapsody is the subject of the movie ''E11'' (2006) directed by Paul Diffley and produced by Hot Aches Productions. MacLeod has since featured in several more climbing films by Hot Aches Productions.
In addition to his achievements in traditional climbing, MacLeod has also successfully created and completed sport climbing routes and projects up to the grade of (''A Muerte'' at Siurana in 2007) and has created bouldering problems up to the grade of (''Pressure'' at Dumbarton Rock in 2005). While he rarely free solo climbs, MacLeod has completed solo climbs up to grade 8c (''Darwin Dixit'' in Margalef in 2008).
MacLeod has also established impressive credentials in mixed climbing with ice axes and crampons, climbing ''Good Training for Something'' with Canadian climber Will Gadd at a grade of M12. In 2005 he has also established the hardest traditional mixed climbing route in the world at the time, ''The Hurting'' in Coire an t-Sneachda, Cairngorms. The route has been repeated a few times and has a Scottish winter grade of XI,11 (M9+/M10) with hard, technical climbing over very poor protection.
''Echo Wall'', an extreme and as-yet ungraded climb on Ben Nevis, was completed by MacLeod in 2008 after two years of preparation.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=MacLeod's Boldest: Echo Wall )〕 MacLeod described Echo Wall as harder than Rhapsody but left the route ungraded in a possible attempt to avoid the earlier controversy surrounding the E11 grade.
In December 2009, Macleod's book ''9 Out of 10 Climbers Make the Same Mistakes: Navigation Through the Maze of Advice for the Self-coached Climber'' was published.
On 28 August 2010, MacLeod and Tim Emmett established the route ''The Usual Suspects'' on Sron Uladail on Harris, provisionally graded E9 7a, in an ascent broadcast live on BBC Two Scotland. As part of their preparation, MacLeod and Emmett successfully established five new routes on five Hebridean islands (counting Lewis with Harris as two separate islands) in five days, an achievement documented in the BBC Scotland series ''5 Climbs, 5 Islands'' (later released on DVD as ''Triple 5''). MacLeod has continued his association with BBC Scotland, filming ''The First Great Climb'' (broadcast on 22 November 2011), in which he replicated a successful 1876 attempt on the Stack of Handa using the type of equipment that would have been available at the time, and ''Climbing – No Limits!'' (broadcast on 12 April 2012), establishing new routes in the Yorkshire Dales and the Peak District.
