MapDescription
See topos. Spectacular summit. Good route with good gear. About an hour approach into the east fork of Elbow Creek from a camp at Elbow Lake. Watch out for the rope-eating rap into the descent gully.
Location
Approach hike into the east fork of Elbow Creek from Elbow Lake takes about an hour. Walk past the small tarn about 1/4 mile and the route becomes fairly obvious. The climb is actually on a tower that is separate from the larger tower behind it. This is Anacker Tower, shown just left of the sun in this photograph.
Protection
Standard alpine gear rack to 3".
