We Start at 5 am , bulletproof all the way to parking lot. Fast travel condition, we reach the top of the line by 8:30 We cut some cornice and rappel into the line. Snow was in prime condition so lots a sluff management to do. Pretty rocky at the crux but we managed to keep our board and ski on. Then the choke is about 1 snowboard wide. Easy on the board but look not that fun on ski. About 1/2 way down the line there is still an ice waterfall but we just rode over it. If anyone thinking of going I would recommended to bootpack down the crux!
