Description Suggest change

The route starts in an iced up weakness left of the big chockstone roof. Later in the year snow covers the ice, so pick a day early in the season. The crux pitches are the first and last pitches. There's roughly 4 pitches total. After the first pitch just keep heading left on WI2 ice until you run into a hidden pillar with a dry tooling exit on left. Get an early start! For the Descent there are slings and fixed anchors for the 3rd and 4th pitch (replaced 2023). We climbed this route in sporty January.

Location Suggest change

This line isn't on the Roctober wall formation. As you make your way across the lake that leads to the Roctober wall formation, keep your eyes open for a thin smear up high and right on the flanks of Ptarmigan. The route starts in an iced up weakness left of the big chockstone roof.

Protection Suggest change

Single Alpine Rack. Couple Lost Arrows, Knfeblades and Specters.
