110m, 2 pitches. Low down on the headwall of Coire na Eirechanach is a slabby buttress with a prominent icefall just left of a shallow gully. Climb steep ice to start then an easy-angled unprotected thinly iced slab up and right to a belay (55m). Regain the slab and follow better protected grade III ice bulges to finish easily to belay (55m). An optional 30m upper pitch 100m up and right across easy ground is worth doing over pleasant grade III ice bulges.
