A steep ice curtain can be found where the canyon becomes extremely narrow and the climber encounters a very deep, grotto-like pool. First ascent took the left side of curtain (50ft) which provided the steepest challenge. Easier variations can be taken to the right. Climb can end here or continue up easy ice for another 150’.
