Tina,

Congrats to you and your friends. As you know, that's no easy stroll. Did you jump in the lake when you got back to camp?

Great pics lik2hik, love this:
We renamed it Advil Camp

Zach kept saying we took the west rib up, wouldn't that be the east rib up and west rib down????

Skunk_it was too cold up there, the wind was not in our favor.

Hi Tina:
The route we went up is called the North Rib. If you look at it on the map, the orientation of the route is pretty much north/south. The long ridge that is visible in the pictures, that forms the backbone of Tyndall is called the Northwest Ridge.
The route we took down the mountain??? Um, errr, we'll unofficially call it Tina's Traverse!
