Description

This beautiful peak has a number of very interesting possibilities for the adventurous and hardy soul looking for technical lines. The early season probably provides easiest access, but the truly hardy may go mid-winter or late winter. Deep snows may guard this area from ordinary climbers. Late season may allow for alternative adventures.

Venture here with caution and elan.
