So there's this picture I took of the Middle Teton during alpenglow on my way up the Grand that I have as my background. The shadows show this one feature really well, and I've always admired the look of it, but I can't seem to find any beta on it. It's not in Ortenburger's guide, and it's not on MP. Anybody know what route it is? Has anybody climbed this?

looks like it was bypassed. Possibly check the AAJ 1956 on the Goodrich and see if they found it to be an unstable shit pile. Renny put up that other line, you could always just ask the rangers.

Most likely, the snow field above is a source water and it drains right down that chasm/chimney. Same thing happens on the Goodrich.

Pretty sure that route is in the new Gam's Teton Rock guide.

Ah I didn't think of that. That's too bad.
