Comments

Climbed Cold Comfort (or maybe Cold Choice?), the right line. Left one is not in, Blessed Rage not in, everything we saw was thin and crusty. Our climb was thin, lots of airy shell,

dubious screws, we used some rock gear to protect and for anchors. Upper pitch is much better. Easy aporoach on foot, snow levels are bellow avalanche treshold.

Some water is running on the climb, work in progress, it will fatten up.
