Description Suggest change

This is one of those peaks in the High Sierra with an actual North Face, and is far enough north to have a small glacier leading up to the 900 foot North Couloir a very popular and classic ice climb.

Getting There Suggest change

This climb and the scrambles up its south/east side can be accessed for the Bishop Pass trailhead, cutting off right to Treasure Lakes, for the north face do not go all the way to Treasure Lakes but head west beneath the foot of the north ridge and thence around into the north face bowl.
