I've attempt the MR 3 times in the last couple of years so far making it only to Iceberg Lake. I intend to summit this summer. The "trail" leading to Iceberg Lake is not clear in places. As you near the "seeps" stay just below (30 yards or so) them. You'll probably see more than one trail heading in the right direction. Just past the second seep look up for some cairns and/or tracks. I found it a little hard to navigate but you can make it up to Iceberg Lake without experiencing any class 3 climbing. Although I did scramble up a steep rocky section but once up was able to direct my wife to an easier path.

Try to talk to Doug in the Portal Store for some info on going up the "chute". He was very helpful to me but I chose not to go that far because of an August snow storm. You can see in the first video the creek was flowing strongly.

My videos may provide some help
