Description
Due to this route being Ice/Alpine, isn't really a crux out of the ordinary.
It is a vertical route, and at the top is the typical ledge to climb over to ascend to the top.

Location
Following the hiking trail from the road, this route is (if I recall correctly) the second or third set of ice you'll see along the wall. If you follow the path, it should lead you directly to the base.
This may not be exact coordinates but it’s close enough. (47.2525000, -84.5697100)
Protection
There are options to either set up anchors from above, or lead the route.
For leading, beginners may want to bring about 8 screws, more experienced can send it with less.
To set up a top rope, there is much natural anchors at the top, many of which have webbing already set up. According to locals, those are left by the local climbing instructor and are replaced regularly, but you can use at your own discretion.
