The Harvard Route
The Harvard route has around 34 pitches of snow, ice and rock. It's an Alaskan grade 5, 5.9, AI4, A2 with 3900' elevation gain from base camp to summit. The route is located to the right of the West Face Couloir route. We did the route in 3 1/2 days base camp to base camp. I classic line I believe will get more action in the future.
This photo is of the approach to the "Steg". Much of the climbing is on the other side of the ridge.
