Enjoyed the trip report and pictures. I just found this web site and reading reports like yours brings back memories. I climbed along the edge of the "Fin" in July,1971 and gave it that name in the AAJ route description we published that year. We intended to do the Fin's crest but couldn't find a reasonable entry onto the Fin once we got into the couliour to its east. At that time we had no clue that Mark Weigelt had done Backbone the year before or that Jim Wickwire had crossed the face of the Fin a month earlier. Any way, your pictures of the Fin have me thinking I'd like to return and try again.
