Sport climbing route in France

Realization, also called Biographie, is a circa sport climbing route on a limestone cliff on the southern face of Céüse mountain, near Gap and Sigoyer, in France. After it was first climbed in 2001 by American climber Chris Sharma, it became the first rock climb in the world to have a consensus grade of efn|It is possible that it was not the actual first ever 9a+ route to be climbed, as in 2008 Czech climber Adam Ondra estimated that Alexander Huber's 1996 ascent of Open Air was at Biographie remained a long standing open project, and in 1996, French climber fr freed the lower half of the route, added an anchor at his high point and graded it at
Sharma did not assign a grade to the climb. however he did name it Realization. The naming was a source of controversy as in France climbing routes are named by the person who first bolted the route, while in the U. S. (and the U. K.), they are named by the first person to successfully free climb the route. Though only aged 20, Sharma considered retiring after completing the ascent, but found new inspiration in extreme deep water soloing routes in Mallorca. On 24 September 2017, American climber Margo Hayes became the first female climber to climb the route. On 5 August 2020, German climber Alexander Megos created Bibliographie, a route, a few metres to the right of Realization/Biographie.

The route starts with an immediate hard "four move boulder problem", which partially broke in 2010, potentially rendering the lower section even more difficult (it has been compared to the notable bouldering problem, Necessarily Evil). Sustained 5.13 climbing after the initial bouldering problem leads to the main rest, a large right facing flake. After this pause, a series of "super resistant two and three finger pocket moves", with cross throughs, underclings, and high steps lead to Arnaud Petit's old anchor (now since removed), The quality and sustained difficulty of Realization means it is still considered an important rite of passage for the world's best rock climbers, whose repeat ascents of the "legendary" route, are covered by the climbing media. In 2014, National Geographic called it, "one of the most famous sport climbing routes in the world". In 2012, when Adam Ondra attempted to flash the route (i. e. complete on the first attempt) he said: "It had always been my long term crazy dream to flash this route". On repeating the route in 2014, German climber Alexander Megos said: "I wanted to climb this route because it is the world’s first 9a+ and definitely one of the most famous routes worldwide! But it’s not just the history behind the route, also the route itself is one of the best ones I ever climbed!". In 2016, remembering his own 2015 repeat of the route, Italian climber Stefano Ghisolfi called it, " perhaps the most famous cutting edge route in the world".
