Jim Lierman, Paul Kearby (his 2nd 14er!) and Ellen Ritt prepare to climb the final pitch of the Wetterhorn standard route. One descends the rock ramp onto the starting ledge, and then it's straight up! This is on the west side of the summit block. Experience with climbing and exposure is highly recommended. Summer, 2002.

Thanks for the review. The picture turned out much better than anticipated. The light and color surprised me. The more I visit Wetterhorn, the more I love that mountain! | | Posted Aug 19, 2002 4:58 pm |
