Length: 70 meters, 2.5 pitch
Climb a three tiered formation of pillars/daggers which concludes as a broad, low angle ice curtain as is typical for the area. This is a wide flow with many options/possible variations and a standard AK trad rack (I♥pitons) is recommended to supplement your favorite ultralight screws.
