Chimneying/ice climbing in the beginning of pitch 5.

Two unknown climbers on Birdbrain, 2-7-07.

BBB as of Feb 04 2007. We marked the belays and gear used for anchors. The belay on pitch 3 was more convenient above the two pins mentioned in the description.

BBB, ice on the start of the 4th pitch.

The pitch 6 belay anchor - bomber!

BBB is the cleft to the right of the Ribbon. Tough to see what's in the upper pitches until you get there.

Soloing ended at the scary looking cicle. Fractured all the way through, it still held my fat ass. As usual, Jack hiked it.

Start of pitch 1 with entire route in the perspective.

Looking down one move away from the top of BBB. Classic!

BBB, Carl Pluim on the Cave pitch, as you can see, plenty of ice up high!

The belay in the squeeze after pitch 6.

Not much ice as of Dec. 11, '22 - mostly snow in chimneys. Be prepared to climb way above marginal gear for 80% of the route. Maybe more ice will form? We started at 5:40 on P1 and got done at 6:00. We rapped trees skier's right of the climb.
