Hasn't voted | That upper couloir is a lot drier than I would have expected with such a heavy snow year. Surprising!! | | Posted Sep 12, 2005 6:09 pm |

Hasn't voted | we were surprised too. still exciting climbing though. of the nine pitches (including summit pitch) six and a half were all ice with only minor amounts of moderate mixed climbing here and there. | | Posted Sep 12, 2005 7:29 pm |

Hasn't voted | The upper section was loose cl4 but probably feels harder because of patches ice and verglass. | | Posted Sep 26, 2005 11:15 am |
