Description 

Awesome route, more than 160 feet of steep, straightforward Grade 4 ice. Thin ice on the top, but can be bypassed by traversing right on mixed terrain.

Protection 

Large piece of webbing to attach to bridge; a cam was placed as a secondary anchor point. Bring your bridge scrambling skills!

Toprope Protection 

The east side of the bridge above Bear Creek Falls was used as a top-rope anchor. Probably can use the west side as well, but more difficult and I don't know how the Dept. of Transportation feels about using their bridge as an anchor.
