GS stemming on FA.

Description 

This dry dihedral is immediately left of World Cup. Most of the moss is now missing and the inner crack takes a selection of hand sized cams. Just below the roof, turn the outer corner to the left and delicately move up to the ice shelf. Move onto the shelf trending right, and then fire straight up to small 12" cave/overlap. Step left to a 3" ponderosa where you'll find a sling and nut rappel.

Location 

Immediately left of World Cup ice route.

Protection 

Full single rock rack, and 2 stubbie screws.
