Itinerary description
Up Logans Ridge and down SE Ridge
Start just before yellowpinch.
Up Logans Ridge.
Hard, steep ascent with scrambles and some exposure. Need to be confident of navigation and be comfortable with scrambling. A couple of areas where you will need to manage some careful hand and foot holds. Trail is pretty good to follow in most places but there are numerous opportunities to get caught in some steeper or more technical bits and there are areas where the trail is faint or hard to follow over rock.
Coming down SE ridge is pretty straight forward.
Times:
Up Logans Ridge ~3.5 hrs including rests to summit
Down ~2.5 to 3 hrs total travel time - summit to Yellowpinch
