Description Suggest change

Climb the thin flow of ice at the cavern mouth past hiking debris to a ledge.  From here either continue along the ledge past a large Spruce and up a short ice wall to belay above or head straight up a dry corner on bolts (cams for the first moves, .5-2 until final bolts installed). Ring anchor at top.  This route is often used to access the Tolkien area anchors.

Location Suggest change

Before exiting the south entrance of the Tolkien area, look to the East for a small bulge of ice headed up through the trees.  Hit it. 

Protection Suggest change

Standard Ice Rack and draws. Cams may be required.
