AlpineMonkey Posted June 3, 2007 Posted June 3, 2007 Trip: Dragon Teeth - West Face - South Rib Direct (FA?) Date: 6/2/2007 Trip Report: In an effort to find solitude, Denise and I decided to explore the rarely visited Dragon Teeth. This crag is not as remote as many of the crags one might find in the Enchantment Wilderness, but the difficulty in reaching them adds sufficient adventure. Many may find the name more interesting then the quality of the climbing, but if one has an urge to escape the masses, you might find some adventure here. We worked a line up the West Face – South Rib Direct, about 7 pitches and simul climbing, 5.8: Climbing on the rib: The summit pyramid: The Rat Creek Crags: Gear Notes: small rack Approach Notes: left from Mountaineer Crk. parking lot Quote
Weekend_Climberz Posted June 4, 2007 Posted June 4, 2007 Way to get out there :tup: There is a lot of unexplored stuff up there that is neglected due to all the other more popular stuff. Quote
plexus Posted June 4, 2007 Posted June 4, 2007 Looks like a nice runout to the summit pyramid there. How was the rock quality and how sustained was the climbing? Quote
AlpineMonkey Posted June 5, 2007 Author Posted June 5, 2007 On the route we did there was hardly sustained climbing. Some very hard, perhaps quality lines could be done on the steep wall to the left (clean 5.11+ vertical looking cracks for 2 to 3 pitches). Everything up there has been explored, its just a matter of finding it again. Quote
