Warning - Do not get caught in the tide.  Make sure you are aware of the current tides in the Homer area as water levels do rise to the base of the ice on a few routes.

Access: When driving to Homer, turn right off the Sterling Highway onto Saltwater Drive, which is approximately 2 miles towards Homer from the Baycrest Scenic View pullout.  Drive to the end of Saltwater Drive and park.  From the parking area walk approximately half the road distance back towards the Sterling Highway then turn right and hike through the alders until you come to the top of the bluff.  A large tree (an anchor may exist) can be found above the rappel route.  Depending on conditions, you may need to put crampons on at the top of the bluff.  Two 50m ropes will allow you to rappel a safe distance down.  At the beach walk north to the smears of ice after Boardwalk.

Route: From the beach climb steep snow/ice to the base of the route.  Climb a short and steep curtain to the snow bench.  From the bench climb a steep pitch of ice, rock and dirt to the top of the bluffs.   

Anchor: Alders exist at the top of the bluff for rappel but v-thread gear or pins may be required.
