Description The huge flow up the middle of the cliff.... Really fun, one of the best ice climbs at Rumney.... Melts a lot on a sunny day but rebuilds well most nights.... Easier if you start at the left and work right following the lower-angle moves.... Probably WI4+ if you go straight up the steepest parts...Like most ice climbs the difficulty is subject to conditions.... This is a really nice place to be on a winter day looking out from the cliff top at the Baker River and hilly landscape...Reminds you what a nice place Rumney is, all climbing aside....
Location Can't miss it...Right in the middle of the cliff....
Protection Ice screws, normally fat and well protected.... Rap rings on a tree at the top to the left....

| overuse of periods... Ice is in good shape this year, at least as viewed from the highway on the way to skiing. It's been a cold month (Jan. 2009). |

| The route is indeed in good right now, matter of fact its so fat and large that it easily fit two parties while we were climbing there |
