Big Spoon

Rating: WI3/4
Length: 50 meters
Pitches: 1

Set far back in an alpine canyon lays a 20m wide curtain ice that has potential for multiple options up to WI5 but a WI3 weakness can be the easy option of desired. Higher up it stays in until late season and can be a worthy climb if in the Spoon creek area.

Descent: Rap the route.

Heli in, or ski tour in via the Eastern side of the Matanuska via Caribou Creek. Would be a LONG approach for just this climb but worth it if you combine it with everything else.
