Trip Report

This trip was the first peak of a two peak weekend. Starting from Green Lakes Trailhead, we hiked to Green Lake to lay down our overnight gear and found a campsite snow free on a small hill. The ridge appeared to be snow free so we left the crampons and made it to the base of the pinnacle with plenty of daylight. In the spirit of trying something new, we summitted the pinnacle via the short ridge that led directly to the summit. The climbing was low-mid 5th class, with ok protection. We used a 70m rope and set a fixed line so everyone could experience some fun exposure. After a snack, we decended via the catwalk since a rappel seemed hazardous. We found some great glissading off of the ridge after hiking/rappelling down to the trail. Great view and great crew.
