In good condition considering the period of summer!
Solid but not brittle with thin sections

We started to climb at 08.00 in the morning.

First part only left part in good condition
L1 – Solid but not brittle ice with a section of water coming down like a shower, but only on top.
L2 – Traverse good with a small section of thin ice afterwards, the vertical section in good condition, look out for hollow ice in the bottom

Easy ice scrambling with some vertical sections of ice until the upper part .

The upper part is in good condition with solid ice and the candel looks good but needs some lower temperatures!
L1 – Solid ice until the left stand
L2 – Entering the coloiur with solid ice in the start, but very thin and delicate passage to the right stand. We finished the route from there, since the thin ice section had a lot of water running under it 🙁

Nice day with Alexei on his third climb!
