Do you mean the class 1 ramp from Lake 3535? I did it in August 2011 and have posted several photos here:

Example shot: Looking north down the slope of Split to the saddle. Is this the kind of stuff you're looking for?

Hi Cadi,

No but thanks for the photo's, looking for the class 2 "West Face" route that ascends
the ribs from the Lake 11975 area.
You have a shot in your album looking south #39, would you have any other shots
from that angle or even more southeast towards Cardinal Mtn? A straight on face
shot of Split from Lake 11975 would be great too.

Unfortunately the south summit/ridge of Split blocks most of the view towards Cardinal - I don't have anything that shows any more than what is in this shot.

I didn't wander up to Lake 11975 when I was there but I did take some photos of the west chutes from the lower lake around sunset. Maybe these might help?
