Description
The Pencil is the freestanding pillar found a couple pitches up on the route Polar Circus. Not generally climbed as part of the route (nor was it climbed as part of the first ascent of Polar Circus), it is usually not fully formed. When it does form, it is a wild pitch sporting fragile featured ice.
