Description Suggest change

A hidden gem of WI4 ice.

Pitch 1: Climb 35 meters of rolling WI2-3 ice that narrows at the top to a couple meters in width. Bolted anchor on the right.

Cross the big snow ledge for 20 meters or so and set up a belay.

Pitch 2: Climb 35 meters of steepening ice until the last 10 meter crux pillar, pull through and clip bolted anchors directly ahead of you.

Descend: 2 rappels gets you back to the bottom, one won't do it even with 70m ropes due to the size of the ledge separating the two pitches.

Location Suggest change

Cross Eagle Lake and follow the obvious trail through the trees Eastward until you can see the route on your left, cut through the trees directly to the base.

Protection Suggest change

Standard ice rack. Bolted anchors.
