Description

While definitely not a mega classic, this route climbs very steep terrain with fun movement to the right of the Fact or Flander M7+/A0 start. Scramble up into the cave and do a step across move to gain a ledge and traverse right to access the first bolt. Climb the mossy, left leaning crack until eventually gaining more horizontal terrain and thin ice smears. Finish on second pitch ice of Fact or Flander.   

Bolted ground up on 12/25/25 and 12/30/25, redpointed 12/31/25.

(Maybe warrants PG13 due to access ledge)

Location

Same approach as for Fact or Flander. Belay beneath ledge on the right.

Protection

7 bolts, screws (1 or 2 stubbies useful)
