On Thanksgiving I went up to the climbs below winter dance area and found great condidtions. Curtains, slot corner and Dialectric Breakdown were all in and forming up great. My partner, Ashley, and I climbed a mixed route 20ft lookers left of Dialectric Breakdown and had quite a enjoyable time. Not sure what the route is called as it is not listed in the guide book Winter Dance but it is worth climbing again. Has anyone climbed this before? The route follows the chimney/gulley up a short ice step to an ice filled chimney then up a wider gully and finnishes with either a great Hyalite brecca chimney and an tricky traverse or mixed face climbing. The route is around WI3, 5.5, 50 meters. The decent is either walk off to south or a double rope rappel. Bring slings for slinging rocks in mudflow and a lite rock rack along with short screws. A great moderate mixed route. Cheers, Jason
