Show βeta
βeta: Route in fantastic condition, but very lean, giving more difficult climbing than usual. Probably Grade IV 4 on the day. Awkward move onto a sloping ramp with thin ice at the top of the first ice pitch. The start of the second ice pitch was the crux. Not much for the feet and brittle ice over the top of the steepening. A great route under the prevailing conditions. A bit more snow banking out the pitches would make it a lot easier. | βeta? | |
