Description
There are two variations to the first pitch, there is the direct start that rarely comes in at WI4 M5 R/X. The other start is more reasonable, but still is a bit R and goes at WI4- M4. This start is to the climber's right of the direct variation and ascends a mixed runnel to gain the big ledge below the main flow.
P1. WI4- M4. Pull an awkward bulge that is well-protected and ascend up the mixed runnel to the big ledge.
P2. WI3. Climb up the left side of the main ice flow and belay below the big overhang.
P3. M4+. Traverse left to avoid the gnarly, overhanging, ice dagger??? and climb whatever looks clever up blocky terrain to gain the low angle terrace. You can link P2-3.
P4-5 WI3- M2. ascend up the gully if its in for 1 or 2 more pitches.
Descend by scrambling off to the West or rap the route.
