Description:

This classic waterfall can range anywhere from gnarly WI6 in early season, to tame, gentle, and fat WI4- in March, it is found 10.3km north of waterfowl lake campground on hwy93. Hike directly up the creek bed and then angle up and right to the falls. Solo up easy ice to the base of the main falls. Climb the falls in 3-4 pitches.

Descent Options:

Rappel the route with v-threads. Below the top 20m step is a fixed rappel anchor out and right, be careful of stuck ropes here.
