MJ Cross leads out onto the ice right of the "left-side" cave, on what probably(?) was the first female lead of Frankenstein Standard, Jan 1, 1978. Note: the 1970's Chouinard Ice screw, leather boots, SMC crampons, and leading with a pack.
great bit of beta showing the whole climbing area.

The old (1978) belay / rap station in the "Left side cave" on Frankenstein Std. Taken Jan 1, 1978. It's nowhere near this "roomy" today !
