Must have graduated from Alpine Ice (or equivalent), be in good shape, and feel solid on ice. This should not be your very first ice climb. Date is tentative, will adjust based on conditions. Please be flexible. The plan is to do the left-most variation (variously described as V1, V1 left, left left, etc.), but we'll decide based on the conditions. Details to be discussed via email.
