Ireneo_Funes Posted June 17, 2005 Posted June 17, 2005 What's on the list for the Sawtooths, NOLSe? Quote
John Frieh Posted June 17, 2005 Posted June 17, 2005 Finger, Arrowhead, Perch (gotta climb all the routes!), Warbonnet, others...  Rumor has it there is a 18 pitch 5.11 V near redfish lake that is suppose to be as good (or better ) as the B/C in the bugs. 12 of the pitches are either 5.9 or 5.10 Sounds like the N ridge of stuart on roids  Still looking for carpoolers!

Ireneo_Funes Posted June 17, 2005 Posted June 17, 2005 Nice, have fun! I might be asking you for beta on the Arrowhead for my trip later this summer. Â I'm trying to imagine where an 18-pitch route near Redfish Lake would be exactly. There's some big stuff in that area, but I thought the Perch had the longest routes. Quote
John Frieh Posted June 17, 2005 Posted June 17, 2005 Perch has the highest concentration of longer routes but the route in question is a ridge so it is longer. I should have more info later... Quote
MCash Posted June 17, 2005 Posted June 17, 2005 Nolse, I assume that you're talking about the North Ridge of Baron Tower, the largest rock feature in the Sawtooths. It sure does look nice. Do you have a topo of it? Quote

North Ridge of Baron Spire. I would be very interested in hearing about ANY info on this climb. The photo in the Lopez does not make it look as steep as Howser but the topo is HUGE. Quote
