Entire West Ridge

From the summit looking west, the entire west ridge of Peppermint Peak is visible. Route begins at Spire Col, which is just west of tiger-striped rock and on Bear Creek Spire's beautiful clean granite. The majority of the route traverses high on the southern side of the razor back (to the left as looking at photo) with a few deviations around towers to the north (right side). Route may be determined (or terminated) by climber's comfort level with exposure on Class 4 potentially loose rock. 03 Jun 07
