After a night of dancing at the Les Claypool Oddity Affair, I got the Text that Timpanogos was in the sights so I woke up at 4 after two hours of sleep and met up with Mark and Dan. It was a long day of fine navigation through and up some of the biggest mountains in the Wasatch. The final push along the ridge was intense but I found a rout and if you look close you can see our tracks down the west face of Timpanogos, they come from the summit shack on the left.
Here I gave the OOO my god this is exposed face as I looked back at the ridge we were walking.
If those other pictures don't give you a good idea of the exposure this is the face you would fall down if a cornice broke out under you. Not the best way to go out if you F up but damn it makes your heart pump as you navigate the knife edge looking down that.
