Peak Mountain 3

South Face

FA unknown

Description

Steepest line straight up the south face. Protection is available, but if you're experienced enough to safely protect this line--rarely, if ever climbed=mostly loose rock--you're probably better off sans rope.

Given the nature of the rock, I can't say that I recommend this face as a roped climb. As a solo/steep scramble, it's great fun!

Line is mostly 4th class to 5.0 with occasional moves up to 5.3. Definitely not sustained 5.3.

Descend via southwest gully or west face, depending on your preference.

Location

Same approach as West face. Once you reach the summit block, go right. Pass the obvious southwest gully and pick a line up the steepest portion.

Protection

No protection necessary. One could, if desired, protect with traditional gear.
