Bill_Simpkins Posted July 30, 2004 Share Posted July 30, 2004 Climb: Needle Peak-SW Ridge Date of Climb: 7/26/2004 Trip Report: Went up Needle Peak with Polish Bob. This is the best hike/scramble I've ever done! The views, trail and terrain are amazing. I highly reccommended this easy route to anyone. Anderson Range: Yak: Some weird cell phone tower or something. Dru, do you know what this is exactly? The final part of the route: Cool lounge area on the summit. Gear Notes: water, food, jacket. There is almost no water on route. Approach Notes: mostly a hike. Trail is steep for 1/2 hour, then mellows out. 2 little scrambling parts. If it is exposed or harder than class 2-3, look for an easier way (if you want). Took us about 2.5 hours to top, 1.5 hours down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
