Description Suggest change

This broad arete marks the left edge of the Mythic Wall and makes for a wonderful long and moderate alpine style romp on great rock.  It is the easiest way to gain the plateau of the Sisters Glacier from the Green Creek basin, which are separated by an almost two mile long barrier of 1000 foot tall broken cliffs.  

A lot of rambly 3rd and 4th class with many possible variations and the occasional low 5th section all lead up towards a great pitch of 5.6 that tackles the steepest and most defined part of the arete, close to the top.  

A combination of down scrambling and tat rappel anchors will get you back down the route.

Location Suggest change

On the right (north) side of the Green Creek Drainage, a bit before getting into the upper basin.
