First time to Enchantments despite being a local, wanted to have a stellar view. Witches Tower delivered! Perfect weather to boot. Very easy scramble, did as a day-hike via Aasgard. Do it!
Stopped by on the way back to camp from Dragontail so we could check out the lines. Lines were beautiful we were too lazy to come back up the steep snow with trad gear, so we just scrambled it.
Route Climbed: Scramble Route Date Climbed: Jun 4, 2008
Scrambled up with only 100' or so of visibility. Combined with Colchuck, Dragontail, Little Annapurna, and McClellan all in the same day, starting from Colchuck trailhead.
Scrambled the normal route after traversing over from Little Annapurna. The route was covered with snow in spots which made it interesting. Nice views from the summit, but I almost got blown off by some ferocious winds. Nice looking peak, I'd like to try one of those routes on the East Face.
Route Climbed: South side Date Climbed: June 19, 2005
I climbed Witches Tower as a suggestion from a climber I met on the summit of Dragontail. Traversed the south ridge of Dragontail until was able to drop down to the south side of WT and scrambled to the summit with a commanding view over the entire Enchantment basin. From there continued to Little Annapurna and back down to Aasgard pass for the long downhill to the trail head, great day in one of the most beautiful places. I'd like to come back and try some of the other more technical routes, also Witches Tooth looked enticing.
