Usually very thin, I like to bring a .4 and .5 BD when its thin to help out in the middle section. WI4 only if you get a good pillar at the top. about 250ish feet total. Look for anchors under the ice at the top of the first curtain on the left. From here you can reach the top with a 60, using all your rope stretch. Or go to the tree about 200ft up on the left and finish with the short pillar. Scramble down to the tree and rap one rap 200ft. You could probably do it with one 100 foot rap and then downclimb easy ice at the bottom.
