Location
This is a prominent right facing corner/ramp system directly below the Vision Quest Couloir
Protection
Move quickly, start in the dark. Make sure it stays frozen, and be off of the Black Ice by the time the circus on the OS starts (tourists trigger a suprising amount of rockfall). We didn't leave any fixed pins, there were a few I probably should have. Particularly, the pin on the crux, as it's the only pro available and is a small incipient crack, it will get destroyed quickly. Take a standard Teton rock rack, an assortment of ice screws and some small pins. This route eats up Knifeblades, you will be glad for them. :)
