Description 

This is near the tallest part of South Park. There are probably 2-3 lines here that are considered Fingerbang. The steep line is depicted here, but there is a really fun, easier line that is just to the left and finishes on a cool dribble up high. Do 'em both.

Location 

This is just right of the freestanding pillar up high, Pinkeye, near the downstream end of South Park.

Protection 

Ice screws and perhaps long slings for the left finish (though rock gear might be found for those who look harder).

Long slings for the trees above for an anchor.
