Description
Another spectacular route that doesn't form every year. It is the obvious ice pillar that breaks the sheer wall right of Power Play.
P1 WI3: Go up an ice slab to a right-leaning chimney. Squeeze up this, then go up a slab, angling left at the top to some trees on the left, about 25' below and left of the base of the pillar. 120'
P2 WI5: Go straight up the pillar to the top. The pillar usually touches the wall in two places, offering rests. Halfway up, there's a bail option on the right if the top proves too much. 80'
The two pitches are often linked.
Descent: Rappel with two ropes from trees.

About 100' right of Power Play and 40' left of Lilith below the obvious ice pillar 120' up.
