Length: 400 meters
This route consists of 3 ice steps, each around 30-40 meters long. The first step appears to be around 70 degrees. The second and third steps appears steeper at 80 degrees. The total length of the route is probably around 1000′ maybe 1250’ish, from the base of the first ice step. Probably, another 500 feet of climbing the bottom snow gully will put one on the first ice step. Steep snow couloir steps between the ice.
