SP member mtnhiker13 pauses...

SP member mtnhiker13 pauses near the bottom of El Diente's south slopes. The summit is over on the left. Our route climbs up directly above mtnhiker13 and traverses just below the ridge. Another expedient route angles up toward the summit across the slope. Loose rock is the price, but to the experienced, this is a good way to climb or descend. Summer, 2003.
