The right of way for the railroad extends 50 feet on either side of the tracks, so while walking next to the tracks is likely safer, from the point of view of the railway it does not necessarily provide a solution. Ideally climbers should avoid being near the tracks whenever possible. We're requesting that climbers use alternative approach trails when it makes sense, such as in the case of the Frankenstein Cliff trail. If you do need to use the tracks, we want people to be aware of the situation, and to try not to spend excess time on them.
Description
Start down and left of Gully #1 in the same place as the summer rock route of the same name.
P1: Climb the obvious corner system to its top, then move out onto the slab. Belay just above at trees.
P2: Climb another short pitch to the top.
Listed as "Cornier de la Mouse" in the Wilcox ice guide. French for "Corner of the Mouse," to go with Mt. Willard and the 1971 horror movie, "Willard."
