Description 

Begin at the 4th of July Trailhead and hike up to Arapaho Pass. From here, angle south and west, and hike around the east and south end of Lake Dorothy into the northeast cirque below Mt. Neva. Climb the Juliet Couloir which is the southernmost path of least resistance perpendicular to the ridge. It will be 1 or 2 Couloirs to the left of one with a Cornice. Be prepared to take the North Ridge as a possible Descent (Class 4).

Protection 

An Alpine Start. Snow Pickets & a Light Rack (for the North Ridge Class 4 descent) if desired.
