Grand Teton
About Grand Teton:
Quoted from Ortenburger's guide: "The Grand Teton is not only the highest peak in the range but also the high point of climbing activity. From any approach to the range, the Grand Teton towers above the lesser peaks and beckons the climber almost irresistibly. In more than 100 years of climbing on The Grand, routes to the summit have been found that will satisfy anyone's taste. From the Owen-Spalding route to the direct North Face route almost all degrees of difficulty can be found, but even on the easiest routes knowledge of the use of the rope is required for safety." |
