Ice Pond

Stand up on the low rail to start. Climb up the slab using the pebbles.

The ground looks flat but it is slightly sloped and there is a rock on the ground that makes your pads unleveled. My ankle got destroyed on this climb, so make sure to prepare a flat landing surface before trying this problem.
