The first episode of the new EpicTV series, Nomad tells the story of Jonathan Siegrist—a climber who quit his corporate life and opted to travel the world instead. His main goal was to climb the world’s first 9a+ in Céüse, France, named Biographie/Realization.

The climb took him four weeks, draining him both mentally and physically. But Siegrist understood from the beginning how big of a challenge this climb would be, so he persevered. He became the eighth person to complete the route.
