Whiplash

Start up the Jagged-Upham couloir, climbing a short steep step below where the Whiplash Gully turns off to the right. Climb ice here or, if ice is thin, stay in the main Jagged-Upham couloir and take a steep, mixed ramp to Whiplash Gully. Continue up steep ice, which merges with a five-metre frozen waterfall. The upper couloir contains 60-degree ice with one short steeper section. After the steeper section aim for the top of Deep Throat Gully and the summit block of Jagged. The route can be time-consuming and the Grade is dependent on conditions.
