Into the Tantalus: Alpha Mountain East Ridge
SUBSCRIBE: http://bit.ly/lifeofluke
Alpha's iconic East Ridge rises up from the Squamish River and is a jewel to behold. The route is a Squamish classic in the Tantalus Range, and is a big hike up to Lake Lovely Water, followed by reaching the ridgecrest and looking over the glaciers to the north, then getting on the rock proper with a couple pitches of 5.7-5.8 climbing, which we soloed around to the left on very exposed 4th class scrambling. This was a highly rewarding and fun climb, and I was stoked to do this one with Matt. It was an adventure!
Thanks for watching!
