A snow/glacial apron intrudes...

A snow/glacial apron intrudes on the ridge about two-thirds of the way up. The variant of the route that descends to avoid most of the rock climbing regains the ridge here. Just above me there are some crevasses, so it's not just a snowfield.

August, 2002, photo taken by Dan Smith.
