Description

Very nice route to the right of the Designator. Follow Resurrection, cut left at the roof...involves some crafty climbing to do without figure fours....

Protection

Cams, pins, and 4 bolts.

Word of Caution

In the last few years, a dagger of ice has appeared underneath the roof. The dagger will break off, so watch the folks below.
