Route Info

Left of the bivouac, climb down over the edge onto what appears to be stone steps. From there, traverse left across the gorge until it’s no longer possible to do so. This route ends just below Gabriel’s section of hanging rope. The rest requires aid in many spots so is not required for KL FS.
