Type:
Alpine
Description:
The face is broken into two tiers separated by a 200m wide scree terrace. The
lower tier is 3 pitches in length plus scrambling (crux grade 14) and the
upper tier is 5 pitches plus scrambling (crux 16-17). The rock was variable
in quality, but it is possible to pick a route which avoids the dark
brown/black choss. The good rock on the steep upper tier was mostly light
grey with vertical shallow seams and just enough protection. Descent was by
the loose knife-edged ridge to the south east.
