:D Its a great feeling to climb a route after not having seen a glipse in so many years. On Sat Ross Lynn and I were up in Hyalite hopeing t find " The Shimmy" and the shimmy we did!

Powerful movement through a series of three roofs leads to the infamous shimmy, shimmy, shimmy. A final thin ice section and some stemming! Not one to miss as it hasn't made an apperance in years. Whit Magro ticked this one a few days earlier and in doing so plucked the first ascent of the season.

lot's of tie off's, single set cams- 2inches, several stubby screws
There is less ice and it felt like it was in more difficult condition than the first ascent
