The Crescent Moon Couloir, left and right variations

Looking up the gut of the right variation and what I believe is the steeper of the two variations. Fun side note- when traversing to the summit, there are numerous overhung boulder problems to spice up the final scramble should you choose to.

The Crescent Moon Couloir, left and right variations

View of the Crescent Moon Couloir and Round Top Peak.
Jan 4th, 2020. Snow cover was thin at times, but solid snow for climbing. Left variation was not filled in
the couloir can be seen clearly from the approach
about half way up
last few steps to the top got steep and the cover was slightly thin. A mild cornice had formed. (Jan 2020)
Choose left or right at the start of the climb.
The left fork, from the descent.
