Stairway to Heaven

Rick Booth leading the crux, third pitch, of Stairway to Heaven, Silverton, CO. WI4. It was 17 below when we left the car at the parking lot, and our goal was already visible in the dim morning light. It didn't really warm up, until the sun hit the ice face as Rick was pulling the top of the crux.
