Bear Creek Spire N & NE Ridge from the side, nearly level with route top (Supercomposite) (Photo Topo)
August 21, 2010 - NE Ridge & North Arete of Bear Creek Spire seen from Pyramid Peak.
This supercomposite was generated from a dozen or so photos taken from a DSLR. I did some selective dodging and burning to help bring out the NE Ridge & N Arete from the background/intermediate features.
Green lines are variations. Those linking up the NE Ridge with the N Arete (A & B) are ones I accidentally climbed before returning to the proper NE Ridge route.
This view is of the North Arete from the side, nearly level with route top.
North Arete from 3/4 perspective somewhat below route base.North Arete from head on, nearly level with route base.North Arete head on, and far below the route.North Arete info is referenced from SuperTopo & photos from other perspectives. I have only climbed the NE Ridge so far, so my line is based on my best interpretation of the hand drawn topo.
