Peak Mountain 3

West Face- Right

FA Ray Sims, Carl Knowles, Ed Johnson, Eugen Pearson, 1930
CREATED 
UPDATED 

Description

Straightforward route up 35-45 degree snow slopes with possible seasonal alpine ice. One can cut in from the col between North and Prouty Point, traversing moderate snow to join this route, making for a very direct climb and cutting out lots of circuitous gendarme navigation and the first half of the "terrible traverse."

Location

West face of North sister. Right of the large rock buttress. Another route, the West Face direct climbs left of this buttress. 

Protection

solo, or pickets for the traverse
