Route



Very difficult mixed route. In some seasons a direct first pitch comes into condition, but this is extremely rare.
Getting there
To reach Conway start from either Portland or Boston, two or three hours by car. Alternatively, Montreal lies 4 hours away by car. Access
From the center of Conway drive west down the River Road for circa 1.5km to reach the West Side Road which leads to the base of Cathedral ledge. The drip is reached in just a couple of minutes on foot from the car park and is located immediately to the right of Repentence. Itinerary
P1: 30 rock grade 5.8/M7+.
P2: 35m hanging curtain, some 90° sections.
P3: 30m 90/95° final drip to reach ice gully, usually very difficult and precarious. Descent
Abseil down the route Gear
Full ice climbing rack. Camalot up to #2 Notes
