five peak traverse  Sucess!

Combined with the Lonesome Bachelor and the Como Peaks for a spectacular traverse. From other SPs, this looks like a place for many past, present, and future epics.

Main Couloir  Sucess!

Climbed with Luke and Amy, great trip but I put a hole in Lukes Kiva with my ice ax,[Mountain Hardware replaced the panel]. Amy had a beautiful lead up the couloir that reached 45 deg at the top.

long day  Sucess!

A poor route choice lead to a long day. The climb up was great, but rather than descend the couloir used to come up (no crampons or axes, my parrtner and I decided to descend the NW side of the peak and make our way back around. After being cliffed out and adjusting our route numerous times, we made it back to camp at the high lakes after 19 hours (car to peak to camp).
