Description
After climbing the lower weeping wall, continue up the snow bench to the base of the upper wall. Three pitches of ice. First pitch is typically the easiest at 4+ to the bench. Pitch two is typically WI5. Good belays can be found on the left or chop a stance in the center of the pillar. Pitch three is usually the steepest at 5-6 depending on conditions and line taken.
