Climbing a melting out Virgin in 2019. I think I swallowed a frog

The 'fang' of Wildcat is actually the Dirty Virgin, since 1982. This is the ice on the left of photo. Rare to ever form up over the last 30 years. Found in Wildcat Canyon. Several climber ascents on Feb.18, 2010.
Creative approach to climbing the Virgin in Wildcat Canyon today.
