Approach

Head around Lena Lake to the trail junction on the NE side of the lake. Continue up Lena creek a few miles then cross the creek and follow faint tread through the forest.

Route Description

Once you get out of the trees, start bending clockwise until you see an obvious chute that heads up. You have some choices to make as to whether you prefer to hike up gullys or along a broad steep ridge.

Essential Gear

A helmet and Ice axe are always a good idea (essential). Crampons may help in early season... or even later when there's just that one lingering patch of ice that's tough to climb up.
