Description

The Trail 4 Ice Flow is a beautiful ice that pillars at the bottom. It was in 2013 nice and thick. I'm not sure of other years. I pretty sure I may have been the first to climb it at least in 2013. When it thins towards the top it could be a great mixed climb.

Getting There

Park at Sylvan Lake -Little Devils Tower Trail number 4 trail head. Hike for about 5mins and look for the obvious small cave. Trail 4 ice flow covers this cave in winter. In as of winter 2013.
