Description

Climb the short corner with increasingly harder mixed moves(4 bolts) to get established below the ice. Make the crux moves(several ways to do this) and gain the ice. Expect a thin vertical smear for the upper portion of the route.

Location

Start in a short wide R-facing corner between a fat flow on the Left(3rd Corner), and the mixed climb Purgatory to the Right. This is located toward the Right end of lower Devil's Kitchen.
