Description

This is a smooth slab feature. There is potential for friction climbing.

Tread lightly, and avoid the high alpine tundra.

Getting There

Hike in from Guanella Pass via Rosalie Trail to Abyss Trail. Cut off at the first lake up into Frozen Lake drainage. The scrambling is on talus. Avoid the tundra and bushwhacking through willows. Slab will be on your left, just past Open Books.
