The Waterfall

Snake Eater

Begin above Backpack Ledge at the drawing from “Adam and Maud.” Head up the arete toward the crack system. The bottom is the tough, but it does go clean. The crux is the traverse right from the face into a crack and the several feet that follow. If you get through that, you’ll enter a series of cracks that end become very awkward about ten feet before the top.
