Storm Mountain

Utah > Wasatch Range > Wasatch Alpine Areas

Description

This was an ascent of the NW Face / NW Couloir of Storm Mountain. When we did it, all the attention had been on the relatively popular East Face of Storm Mountain

Getting There

Park near the electric /pump house in Big Cottonwood Canyon and start bush whacking. We never found a trail, THEN? Approach time to base of face is about 1.5 hours.
