MrRoy4UVAExcellent Beginning Slope
Date Climbed: Dec 28, 2011
Went up with an EMS guide for our first real taste of alpine climbing. Great pitch to learn on. Walked up the left side to about 1/2 way up and made 3 pitches up to just below the main bulge. With the cold temperatures, upward snow and low visibility, this was an great learning slope and makes me want to do more.

Good day to get out and learn the basics and practice technique things start to melt as the day went on but still made it to the top and learned a lot.

Climbed it a couple times, the most recent being mid December 08 in the middle of a storm that dumped a couple feet of snow. Probably not the best idea to go out as we sent down a number of good snow slides, but we made it up via the right side.

It's a good introduction to multi-pitch ice for beginners, but not much more.

Perfect weather. This climb stays pretty late into the spring compared to some other easy climbs in the area.

Climbed the first couple of "pitches," then eventually worked our way left to make a quick retreat from the route. Cold and windy day, and we had to get back to Boston to catch our flight.
