If you are working on your 48, or on your Terrifying 25. Come and join the hike. As usual, we are NOT going to take the easiest way to get there. In this hike, we will do our best to conquer North tripyramid by attacking the North ledge. We will keep going and summit Middle tripyramid. For exit strategy, we will head back by the South ledge. Victory will be declared once everybody arrives safe and sound back to the car. However, you may end up into a lethargic state on the way back with potential temporary PAIN in your body.


The views on these mountains are nice but way better from the ledge! To deserve the view, we will be climbing about 1200 foot in 0.5 mile. That is highly STEEP ! This trail is among one of the most challenging in the T25 list. Rock scrambling, ledges climbing are awaiting for you. Have a look a this page to have an idea about what you are going to face that day.


If weather conditions are not great, we may postponed the hike, or change the trail. There is a thin line between being brave and fool.


11 miles-3000 feet elevation gain including 1200 ft elevation gain within 0.5 mile
