What happens when you just get too cocky with your FJ. (Devil's Gap in the background) Was just down here 2 days prior on the same path (not really much roads) to the north ghost, and took the wrong turn into a ditch covered by this drift. A shovel and potential sleeping gear are a must in the Ghost. Tons of horror stories to go around including losing vehicles to the river. Beowulf, III, WI 4, North Ghost, March, 2007.

<b>1st Pitch/60m-</b> I combined what many would consider two pitches but is easily done as one. Climb the first step (WI 3) left of center and walk to the base of the real falls. This is a WI 4 30m beauty. The left side was better ice but less steeply angled than the right. The right side was more challenging, but was quite wet and chandeliery. I started right, but soon, detoured left and then back to the center towards the end of this pitch. There is a chain anchor on the right as you top out. This can be a very cold belay, so make sure to pack your down on lead. Also beware of falling rock whose fall line appears to be the left side, another reason for taking the more challenging line to the right if the ice is in better shape. <br />Beowulf, III, WI 4, North Ghost, March, 2007

<b> <br /><ul style='margin:0 0; padding:0 0;'><li> Harbingers- 2 Pitches- 5.11b/</li></ul></b> Definitly the best route at Prophesy Wall and most challenging. Beautiful solid aręte following a tower up the left side of the middle routes of Prophesy Wall. The first pitch is the same for Conditional Bliss and Caging the Zealot. Then turn left to the base of the tower. Take on an overhanging face just right of the aręte and turn out onto it for easier moves up to the crux final which is a wild move, no feet, back right to the overhanging anchor. 60’ on six bolts.
