Does anybody have a solid description of where this route starts? I was up there yesterday, and though I couldnt climb because of thunderstorms, I still went to check out the route. Looked like there were a bunch of possible starts, but I couldnt find an obvious start. Any beta would be much appreciated. I'll save it for a sunnier day. Word.

how are the conditions this year? went up last year and the glacier at the base threw us for a loop and we never actually climbed. had no ice gear with us and the glacier took forever we ran out of time and had to head back so i could go to work. and as we never found the start, i would love a pm on start beta as i am heading back in a few weeks to try it again. thanks, amy :)
