Description Suggest change

Beauty mixed line with a lot of variety and position to make it a classic. Start up a steep curtain that leads to a low angle ramp to an free hanging curtain. Someday that curtain may touch down making this route go completely on ice but it likely only forms on rare occasions. Belay on bolts left of the curtain then start up the mixed pitch. Semi decent rock but very well protected makes this a good pitch of dry tooling. Belay on bolts below the final 120 feet of ice. Pitch 3 goes up the obvious gully of ice. Depending on the time of year it could be a scratchy, chimney/stemming affair or a steep narrow runnel of ice. Belay off one the large Spruce trees at the top.
History: The first ascent was done at A0. FFA of pitch 2 was done by Max Fisher and Craig Norris but they elected to rap rather than climb the last pitch. The first complete and free send was by Luc Gallant in 2019. 

Location Suggest change

Easy to find about halfway between the White Fang area and Geezer Falls. Big obvious gully on a broad wall that faces west. 

Protection Suggest change

A rack of screws and draws.
