Wetterhorn 14,015 ft

Wetterhorn and Wetterhorn Basin. I hiked over 6 miles from West Fork Rd. near Ridgway to the standard route up the southeast ridge.
Self-portrait with Coxcomb in the background. I hope to climb that peak soon.

Here is the 3rd class pitch to the summit. The exposure freaked some folks out, but I only enjoyed the solid rock, a welcome change.

Looking down from partway up the steep section.


Enjoying the sunshine and low winds on the summit.
