Ben Moon (born 13 June 1966) is a rock climber from England. During the late 1980s and early 1990s, Moon, along with climbing partner Jerry Moffatt, moved forward the level of sport climbing, both in the UK and internationally. He was the first person to climb a consensus route at the grade of 8c+ (5.14c), by freeing Hubble. Moon's first officially declared 8c (5.14b) routes had somewhat controversial names. The routes were both in France and had been previously attempted for a long time by local climbers. After climbing them Moon named them after French military disasters, first the Maginot Line, at Volx, and secondly Agincourt, at Buoux. On 8 June 2015, Moon redpointed the Steve McClure route Rainshadow, 9a (5.14d), at Malham Cove in North Yorkshire, England. More information...
