On December 29th Evan, Zach, Caleb and I Climbed the East Crater Wall, which is Devils Kitchen Headwall Variation 4. After toping out on the top of the crater we continued to the summit on the upper Wy'East route. Snow conditions were great, but we battled some brutal 30-40+ MPH winds all day. I opted for a spicier exit to the route, topping out on the crater by hacking my way through a steep rimey chute. We had to navigate around a big wind slab on the upper part of the route, but otherwise avy conditions were pretty good. Justin made his first summit, and we also spotted some flamingos on Hogsback!
