Description Suggest change

Many of the cliffs of Rattlesnake Mountain aka Rumney Rocks are separated by gullies. Some of the most notable run on either side of Yellowknife buttress. The gully on the left goes up to Summit Cliff. The one on the right accesses some of the Yellowknife rock climbs and eventually the Monolith, a seldom explored rock feature. Between the rock routes and the Monolith, under certain conditions some big ice flows can form on the left side of the gully. 

Getting There Suggest change

These days if parking allows, It is best to park at the Buffalo Pit Lot and hike the Final Frontier Trail up, cut under the Prudential and on to the base of Yellow Knife. Head up the gully on the right (East side) of the cliff. The going gets steep pretty quickly. look up at the left wall for the ice.
