Sawtooth Climbing

The ultimate rock climb in the Sawtooths! We usually ascend "The Perch" via the eight pitch Mountaineer's Route (III 5.9). A two or three day trip ensures plenty of time for swimming, photography, or bagging rays in the vicinity of the spectacular Saddleback Lakes. Don’t forget your fishing rod!

The Finger of Fate is perhaps the most dramatic summit in the Sawtooths and via the standard Open Book Route (III 5.8) "the Finger" demands well-rounded crack and face climbing skills. We approach via the Hell Roaring Creek drainage and set base camps at unnamed 9,000 foot alpine lakes. For a one day ascent we like to leave the trailhead by seven in the morning.

Climb the Stur Chimney Route on the most dramatic peak in the Sawtooths! A long approach leads to two 5.6 pitches high above Redfish and Bench Lakes. Overnight options utilize a camp at the highest Bench Lake and go for the summit the following morning. Prior climbing experience is not a pre-requisite for this climb.

Located deep in the range on the western slope, Warbonnet is the most committing and remote climb of the bunch. From a camp in the upper Goat Creek drainage the ascent of Warbonnet requires two thousand feet of scrambling and technical 5.7 rock climbing. The summit pitch is one you’ll never forget.
