penguins overcome great obstacles in order to return to their breeding grounds. The march of the penguins is an arduous, dangerous, and difficult battle to maintain survival and continue life. While this route does not end at a penguin brothel, lets hope the trip to the top is nowhere near as perilous?

A deceptive route that climbs

The Penguin's

proud east-face. Steeper than it looks, this line follows the dead-center path of least resistance. Described as "difficult to read", curiosity will be most beneficial, as will balance and fitness. Expect steep face climbing with hidden pockets and edges.
