| Comments: |
I ascended via the cliffs and descended via the bypass, using Microspikes for both. Definitely a stretch using the spikes to get up the cliffs, crampons probably a better idea. Microspikes a good idea for the bypass.
Above the junction, still some blue ice, but you can work your way around it. Microspikes needed there as well. |
