| Really wouldn't give this climb a WI5 grade. The first 30 feet or so of the pillar when it's fresh is steep and pushing WI5, but the rest of the climb is maybe WI4-. Great route, just not really that hard, and once it gets hacked out it's maybe a WI3+. |

| This climb varies in condition. At times, it is a WI5 to get started, since it can be one of those where you have no ice to armpit high, which can require trickery to get started, maybe even a figure 4 or 9. At other times when it touches down, it can be a WI3. FWIW, there is no WI3-5 rating available currently. |
