Teton questions for routes in Garnet Canyon
Posted: Thu Aug 04, 2011 12:20 am
Heading up to Garnet Canyon next week. I've been up there before on the Upper Exum, Grand Teton, and wanted to explore a bit more.
Here's a few questions I have for our plans this time:
1. The guide book describes a "petzoldt ridge" and "direct petzoldt ridge". The latter appears to stick with the arete. Any advice on the better of the two routes?
2. Does the north face of Nez Perce have quality rock between the Hourglass couloirs?
3. Of the various moderate routes (rock and mixed) on the Middle Teton, which would you recommend?
Thanks in advance,
Matt
