170m, 4 pitches.
IV 4
A good route that isn't so obvious from below. 3 main pitches with some linking sections.
1) 50 meters: Climb a low angles slab to a 7-meter wall with a good section of climbing, perhaps an easier section to the left.
2) 40 meters: Walk rightwards to the corner.
3) 40 meters: A steep slab of ice heading towards a chockstone exit which is entertaining. This small gulley continues a further 15 meters with a step in between. head leftwards up a low angle slab.
4) 40 meters: A steep pitch. Starts with a small climb then enters a flat stance with another section to climb over to another smaller stance then trend leftwards up steep ice and exit up the cleft.
