Me (Hamik Mukelyan) on NE Face W, Tahquitz, February 2010. Did it three times that year (with Alex Falk, Pratyush Tiwary, Kedron Silsbee, Jordan Ramey, and Bill Sherman)

really fun climbing.

normal conditions... sort of...

Following the proper route 1 pitch from the top.

The whole lower section of NE Face is visible. Penelope Smrz is climbing in October 2008.

A view from the top of the first belay ledge (approx 60 feet from the start). This belay is large and comfy with a tree and some slings.

Miguel Carmona on the NE Face in 1989. These are great ice conditions on Tahquitz.

If I recall Vogel's book describes finding it as "just left of the obvious tree" - gotta love that. Well, here's what the obvious corner looks like from under the obvious tree. Route is pretty straightforward - or I should say WAS pretty straightforward (when I was younger and lighter!).

The arrows point to the steep exit pitch of the NE Face . The moves are a bit harder here over an old pin. Alois climbing in 2008. "Photo with permission of my wife",

2010 was another great year for ice on Tahquitz. Yours truly on NE Face in early March.
