Kitty Hawk and Unicorn

Quick report

Weather

sunny

Climb Name

Kitty Hawk

Ice Quality

good

10cm of loose snow at the top of the climb, the terrain above looked below treshold. No wind or evidence of past wind, snow is still sitting on the trees. Ice was good, brittle, dry, aerated on the crux pillar. Good screws were tricky on this part. No water flowing on Kitty Hawk, top of Unicorn has water running. The approach gully is tedious, you need to gear up well before the climb and deal with a few short ice steps, plus crappy, steep side-hilling. Keep right at every fork in the track, a bit of a maze there.
