AJ Posted July 12, 2002 Share Posted July 12, 2002 Say you were going into the Enchantments on a Monday and coming out on a Friday with your wife/girlfriend who doesn't lead but follows well to about 5.8. What would your climbing agenda look like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erik Posted July 12, 2002 Share Posted July 12, 2002 aj, there would be no agenda. climb what looks tasty...though i guess an ascent of the w ridge of prussik wouldbe classic in most senses. but then again with the amount of stone up there....the possibilites are truly limitless..... i know that doesn't help, but i am just saying keep your mind open and sandbag her!!! also are you bringing the wife and girlfriend?? brave man you are.....very brave!

TimL Posted July 12, 2002 Share Posted July 12, 2002 West Ridge of Prussk is killer. Hike Little Annapurna Scramble Macellans (sp) peak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpt.Caveman Posted July 12, 2002 Share Posted July 12, 2002 I would climb first on Temple Ridge- First I would do Prusik, Flake Tower, Monument, Boxtop, and then High Priest if I could fit it in. Then I would move to Temple Canyon- Climb if possible: Professor, Meteor, Comet, Lighthouse Tower, Candle, MT Temple. Then I would walk out the Rat Creek and hit a Rat Creek spire or 4. Or you could walk in Rat Creek and do it in opposite, this could be better. [ 07-12-2002, 02:56 PM: Message edited by: Cpt.Caveman ] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg_W Posted July 12, 2002 Share Posted July 12, 2002 You could walk in via N. Ridge of Cannon Mtn, as well. That would set you up to hit the Rat Creek group, head to Prusik Pass and hit the West Ridge and the rest of Cavey's list on Temple Ridge, drop back down on the N. Side (not sure of rappel routes if you head beyond Flake Tower) and head up Temple Canyon. Have fun and make her carry all the horsecock!

j_b Posted July 12, 2002 Share Posted July 12, 2002 Monday: hike in; Tuesday: (possibly finish hike in)and climb W.Ridge of Prusik; Wed: drop toward Colchuck Lake and climb Serpentine Arete on Dragontail (downhill to camp); Thursday: High Priest (NW corner); Friday: hike out. This should also leave you some time to enjoy the area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nolanr Posted July 18, 2002 Share Posted July 18, 2002 The skeeters were hellacious little bastards at Toketie Lake last weekend. I'm probably lucky to still be alive, they almost bled me to death. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
