Nice route with some very interesting pitches on current conditions. We were the only group on the route.

Approach was perfect with hard snow.

We entered by far left to avoid the bergschrund and then hard snow until the ice pitches. The ice pitches are thin at some sections and shorter screws are useful. Starting the keypitch after the rock arch is mixed with some thin ice in the beginning and you need to do a traverse. Otherwise nice pitches along the route and good protection possibilites.

Julia did very well and had a nice experience.
