Description Suggest change

If the aesthetic drip above the dirty cave calls to you like it did to me, give this route a go. Just don't worry too much about sending the chossy bolt ladder, which goes at a stout M7+ if the ice is not near the third bolt (normally extended with a fixed sling) or A1 if you feel like not stabbing yourself in the face after pulling off a baseball-sized cobble...

Four bolts into a left-facing crack and the ice smear. Belay to one side of the cave / steeper ice halfway up. Continue on ice to one of two huge dead trees with tat as of Dec 2020. 60m ropes will get you down.

Location Suggest change

Approach the wall above the Champagne climbs and across the valley from Bobo Like. About 200m left of Flanders Field, the WI3 starting in a left-facing slot, you will see the cave with a dagger and a roof crack behind and right. Fact or Flanders starts on bolts to the left of the dagger.

Protection Suggest change

Draws for bolts then screws the rest of the way
