description
Great climb, impossible to get lost on. All gear anchors, very few fixed pieces. Bring doubles or triples of 0.3-1 cams (BD). Amazing views!
Can be done in 9 pitches with a 70m rope and around 10-14 with a 60m. Note the descent trail down Mt Indefatigable is long closed for Grizzly protection. It is possible to descend via a 500m scree chute back to the approach path. After scrambling up to the meadow follow the knife blade ridge east until a scree fan is seen descending steeply all the way down.
