Steeplechase: the start of P2.
Steeplechase: the P1 crux dihedral (with a bypass option to the left).
Steeplechase: approach... use 3rd snow finger from the left.
Steeplechase: the pic is from the side, so it looks like route traverses, but it's actually pretty straight up from the start.
Steeplechase (M5, 5.5, snow): topo.
