Ascent Note
P1 Between the first and second bolts is a bat hook ladder of 6 holes. This is a thin seam. My partner led this pitch. We repaced the bolts at the belay with two 3" stainless, better than the 1" selfdrives. I led P2 you jump right into it right off the belay. Bring a cliffhanger hook to get to the first bolt. I settled in when I hit the first bat hook ladder. Two of them the first is 4 holes and the second is 5. Big fall potential, but it is mostly a clean fall. Too icey and cold to go any higher than the top of P2.
