mccallboater Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 (edited) Trip: Disappointment Peak, Tetons, Wyoming - East Ridge, grade II, 5.6 Date: 7/1/2012 Trip Report: As a capstone to a beautiful week in the Tetons, Mike Fox joined me on a Tetons moderate classic, the East Ridge of Disappointment Peak. It's dwarfed by the surrounding peaks, but offers a classic climb on great rock from a beautiful campsite at Surprise Lake. My pics Route Description. Gear Notes: One set of cams .75 to 3, one set of nuts. Take at least a 1/2 dozen runners plus a few doubles. Could be done in approach shoes. Lots of water, especially for the 1000' 3rd class scramble to the peak. Approach Notes: Like almost all Teton climbs, the approach is beautiful and a leg burning cardio workout. In this case, 5 miles and 4000' up to the beginning of the climb. Not so bad by Teton standards. Edited July 4, 2012 by mccallboater Quote
