I am making my first trip to the Tetons this summer and one of the days I want to do Middle Teton. I just hike/scramble, and don't want to deal with ropes and climbing equipment, so I figure in the interest of safety Grand Teton is off the table here. It seems the easiest route up Middle Teton is from the south (southwest Couloir) by taking the south fork of the canyon, however I was curious if I could summit Middle Teton by hiking up to the Lower Saddle and then attacking it from the north face? I'm having trouble finding a lot of info about this on the web.
Thanks,
Kevin
