Thanks for sharing Brian. Did you guys hike down and around and then come up or rappel down and then ascend?

Snow was kinda deep, so, much easier to just rap the route first. Nice way to suss out the anchor situation as well as make sure the ice pitches all looked viable. The middle pitch wasn't in, but, there's a up climb that's kinda wild fun to the climber's left. We left one of our twin ropes on it, and, TR'd it on the way out. If lead, would protect with a couple of cams, maybe in the 2, 3 and/or 4 camalot range. Slinging the finish chockstone would work too, if the thing didn't pop out (seemed secure).

My bet is that its pretty good for awhile yet. Cold up there. But, it is spring.

Cheers!
