Icefield Adventures #3 : Panther Falls

The day after Weeping Wall, of course the weather was all clear, but we were somewhat tired.



Because of all the fresh snow, a lot of possible climbing spots were out of order due to avalanche danger. Some of them weren't, among them the Panther Falls, a not so high waterfall over some kind of a cave that can be climb on both the outside and the inside. The outside had a lot of fresh snow, but the inside offered a lot of possibilities.

The Panther Falls cave is also home to one of - if not the - the world's hardest mixed routes: Musashi. No chance we would get much higher than one single meter in it, but we had the luck to see 2 Scottish climbers - Malcolm Kent & Rob Gibbons - working in it, and doing quite well to say.



So we spent more time watching them and taking pictures, than actually climbing that nice little pillar on the right side of the cage...
