Description Suggest change

A well traveled route that gets pounded up pretty good.

P1 (WI4-5): Climb a steep curtain that usually takes screws well. Find anchors above the curtain out left (chains on the right face are for a mixed route).

P2 (WI4-5): Tool over a step to a longer section of steep ice. Top out at bolted anchors on the left.

Descent: Rappel from bolted anchors.

Check avalanche conditions before climbing in this area.
Massive avalanches rip down this drainage nearly every year.

Protection Suggest change

Pro: Bring a variety of ice screws. Long ice screws are useful on the first pitch.
Rope: 70m rope (two rappels) or doubles (one rappel)
Anchors: Bolted - P1 has anchors above the curtain on the left, P2 anchors are on the left as you top out.

Location Suggest change

Third section of ice to the right of Bridal Veil Falls.
