Description Suggest change

With big southern exposure, this is a hard climb to find in condition. If not baked ghostly white or non-existent, you'll still have to hoof it up the hill higher than the top of Stairway to Heaven to make sure it's supported. Go early season, and be ready for fresh sticks.

A double 60m rap from a v-thread in the last ice will get you all the way down.

Location Suggest change

It is very visible up and left of the Outward Bound Wall from the drive in. Start up the road, and pick how early you want to contour up left avoiding avalanche terrain as much as you can. Solid snow conditions are advisable for the approach slope.

Protection Suggest change

Screws.
