This is the route that most people choose to climb when they come into the valley. This is unfortunate as it is an awkward feeling, unispiring route. A long low angle smear leads to a short steep section at a bottle neck. This short section gets fairly steep and is entirely out of character with the rest of the route. Unless conditions are fat, you will feel sandbagged for a few meters. Rap off v-threads. The best approach is to stay high on the snow slope. A good ledge is found just before the route on which to gear up. Rap off threads.
