BETA PHOTO: Winter shot of the "main face" of Cathole. The bus...

Description 

One of the best face climbs around, sustained powerfull climb with not so great rests. Crux is getting to the overlap and pulling through. Great movement, figuring out the sequence is the fun of it all.

Location 

Blankish face to the left of Danzing, fingers are small and somewhat crimpy, fun project to test your limits. IW follows the line up the center of this face, to the left of the ice in the crack. The crux is at the right facing flake just under the small roof, pull through, step left and continue up the obvious line to the top, if you've got the juice.

Protection 

TR set up is good with gear. No fixed anchors.
