Route #4
We looked up, though, and I looked at Blake and said “why don’t
we just solo it.” It was only WI2 although thin. We threw the
ropes on our backs to rap and climbed beside each other to the top.

As we descended I jumped on the 15 foot pillar that formed beside the
last route. Brittle ice lead to wet plastic and a moss top out. It was
fun but hardly worth the effort. We downclimbed ramps and some ice to
get to the bottom of La Souche and walked down the cliff where most
people were toproping the steeper fatter climbs to the last route of the day.
Notice the very floppy rope on his back....lol
