Pat McGrane's Pioneer climbing guide

[mccallboater]

It's about time somebody reported from Idaho. My friend Pat has compiled the first comprehensive guide to alpine climbing in Idaho's Pioneer range, and posted it courtesy of Tom Lopez's Idaho climbing guide web site. Several of these routes are worthy of AAJ entries, but knowing Pat he will never bother. Enjoy, and please read the intro about keeping this area pristine.

Great resource! Thanks for posting. I wish it wasn't such a long drive.

Rolf and I just hit two of these routes on our summer vacation; super fun and not a soul to be seen once you left the roads with the ORV crowds.  If you like solitude on your routes, the Pioneer Range delivers.  Thanks Pat McGrane for the beta!
