Alexander and Thomas Huber free the Zodiac
huber兄弟自由攀了Zodiac

It was no secret: the Huber brothers had their eyes and hearts set on El Capitan's Zodiac. And after working the route intensively earlier this summer (and setting a record speed ascent) Alex und Thomas Huber have now finally freed Yoemite's mythical 16 pitch route.
一点也不奇怪：huber兄弟青睐El Capitan的 Zodiac。在今年夏天的早些时候他们努力尝试这条线路后（创了一项速度攀纪录）。他们兄弟终于这次自由攀完成了这条谜一般的16段线路。

First climbed in 1972 by Chris Porter and graded A2 5.7, the Huber's topped out on 9 October after three days on the wall. Although the grade is still unknown, it is most probably in the upper 5.13 range.
