Victorious on Mt. Sneffels (14,157 ft)
Jeff Scrambling up to the Summit of Mt. Sneffels
The Amazing View! Cirque Mountain, Teakettle Mountain, and Potosi Peak.
Jeff and I climbed the uber classic southwest ridge of Mt. Sneffels.
Jeff had mentioned, on my Pigeon/Turret trip last summer, how he was interested in climbing the ridge route on Sneffels. In the meantime, I had heard nothing but good things about it from other folks in the Colorado Mountain Club.
So, finally, after thinking and dreaming about the route for year, I got to climb it! The southwest ridge did not disappoint; it truly is a classic ridge scramble and, as such, is featured as one of the premier routes in the CO Scrambles book.
