A mixed icefall that has it all. Visible directly from the road.
A mixed icefall that has it all! Visible directly from the road, it takes about 15 minutes to climb up the steep forest slope to the 80 m high icefall. It is pure ice climbing up to the first belay, then mixed climbing follows until you can climb back up onto the free-hanging icicle. Abseiling is via the route.
