Description
This is the crown jewel of the area! It is the second icefall on the left as you're walking down the tracks and unmistakable.
Pitch 1 (WI 3+) Pick a pillar at the base that will allow access to a wide ledge and climb for about 75 feet until you find a comfortable belay spot.
Pitches 2-4 (WI 2-2+) Pick your way through the remaining 400'-500' of slabby ice with occasional steep and thin sections. Belay at comfortable stances.
