During the 70z , the twin-headz climbed most faces and ridges ... the most well-known is The Wick (~17) , which blasts straight-up to the summit from the same sea-level ledge used for the 'normal' route .... Ist ascensionist bear-hugged a fridge-sized block as it topple into the void... but lived to etc,etc,etc ......... the south ridge , in this pic, A SHARK'S EYE VIEW , looks like itz been struck by lightening recently ... DO beware the great whites --- they are known to ' surge ' up onto ledges to grab seals ........... and plump, tasty little chappyz like you ...
