Description:
Good mixed route, approximately 5 pitches, but much can be simul-climbed if you're comfortable with it. Hardest climbing is near top where water ice pours off an overhang. Steep and exposed. Good rock gear before committing to pulling it though.

Fun Climb
This is a good alpine climb in the spring/summer. The rock is loose and chossy, which is kinda standard fare for the cascades.

Very fun
Rock is shitty....EVERYTHING is loose....stick your tool in a crack and torque it before trusting gear in any crack

Ascent Note
This is a great route. There are two starts the line to the left is more difficult and is over 60 meters to a good belay at some trees. Also the rapells off of the east side are a little over 30 meters.
