Description 

This is the prominent water ice line on this wall. It is located about 300' north of the central slab, Ice Slab ??.
Climb a plumb, ice line right off the deck, followed by a WI3 mid section. Continue on WI4 to a ledge. Make a choice: the original route went straight up to a small roof. Jam the crack thru the roof, and into thin lay-away seams above, delicately move right 10', then 15' up (M6 crux), and traverse 20' right to a tree for a sling rappel.

Location 

Located about 300' north of the central slab.

Protection 

6 screws, full single rock rack.
