攀登 in Matthes Crest

Novelty climb, a must do once in a lifetime. Be prepared to hike your ass off.

Complete traverse from South to North. Especially after the North Summit nice climbing and what a beautiful line. Approach from Bud lake is the shortest.

Weather was threatening rain/snow so we bailed at the base of the south peak. Pretty easy rap with a single 60 m rope.

What a day out, such and incredible feature

Simul/solo as much as possible, or you will take far too long! 3 hour hike each way plus almost a mile of climbing.

So much fun, and really mostly scrambling. Very glad to not have a rope, although I understand why some parties would want one for the start and for one tricky section near the end.

Excellent climb on a knife edge ridge. Don't underestimate the time it takes to complete.

like the last two moves on a summit . . . all day long

Great climb.
