Climbed this with Hugh Grierson, make sure your ice screws are sharp, you'll want them to bite fast on the second pitch, it is steep!

An amazing climb
Left is the way to go on the first pitch, which puts you in great belay cave with some awesome ice features. It was Seth's last day in Canmore and he still let me lead the second pitch. What a guy. What a climb. Definitely easier than a 6 this season.

Wild route with very cool ambiance. The first pitch had some really fun mushrooms with presented a couple of overhangs and technical climbing. I brought Hedd-wyn up, and he did the second pitch, a dead vertical straw of ice, with water running inside it. 1 rappel got us down to the apron, and we downclimbed from there.
What can I say, thanks to Adam and Lynette for another outstanding get together. Any WI 6 day is stellar beyond words. Real scenic and remote outing. Will bring skis next time!

WhitemanDid this and Red Man Soars, goes in one pitch with 70m ropes. WI5 condition, but steep and sustained.
