Snow climbing on the upper face of Polar Bear. We made 2 raps from the summit with 2 skinny 70m ropes. I'm helping to pull ropes here.

The route goes straight up the snow to the base of the rock pyramid. Once at the rock pyramid we chose the left gully- easy rock chimney. There was snow and ice in the chimney in June. The approach is mostly a bushwhack.
Top of the snowfield on the North Face of Polar Bear. There are two obvious gullies to choose from. We went left and climbed the chimney- very easy climbing. You'll need some rock gear to protect it as the ice is very thin and rotten.
