Description

The mile high wall refers to the south-east face of lower spire, which has separate pinnacles and faces that collectively make up this large zone, which has gone undeveloped until recently.

Getting There

From the Reed Valley, approach up the drainage coming from thee west that drops down to the main trail between the two lakes. Or from the northern rim of the Snowbird glacier, descend in between the Lower spire and the Chunnel crack to the base of the wall.
