Description:
From the snout of Elkutna Glacier, head up gully, making switchbacks and scrambling (3rd class) up steep tundra and scree for 1,000'. Make your way up beautiful alpine valley to flat area littered with boulders, alpine flowers, and crystal clear mountain streams. This position is about a mile from the Bellicose-Benign Col and is a great place to make a base camp. Follow moraine to a pocket glacier below the N.N.E face of Bellicose. You will see a couloir snaking it's way up the face. Begin by snow climbing
