Mount Lincoln Ice Fall

 

EJ wasn’t able to make the last trip up the Scottish Gully so we played hooky today and took a quick morning trip to the falls. We completed the Scottish Gully in two pitches at a WI3 grade. It was eight degrees when we left the Jeep and we battled constant 5 - 10 m.p.h. winds the entire climb. When we rapped the route there were two parties starting up . . looks like we timed it just right.
