Description Suggest change

This is not the best line on Ulu, but it is a moderate route on mostly good rock.
Stronger climbers will undoubtedly find better variations amazing cracks and better rock, especially on the head-wall pitches.
First ascent team did this climb in 2 days because they really wanted to sleep on a wall; a fit team will do this as a good "day" route.
 

Descent:
Rappel the head-wall in 3 raps, scramble on moss and slabs to the west buttress (Facing the Weasel River). Down climb, scramble and rappel back to the steep moss slopes. 

Location Suggest change

Hike up the south side of Ulu towards the distant toe of the slab. Start where the slab is the lowest possible angle up broken corners and slabby face sections. 

Protection Suggest change

double ropes (60m), double rack to 3", one 4" & 5".
