Ascent of Torreys Peak on 2008-07-04| Others in Party: | Pete | | Date: | Friday, July 4, 2008 | | Ascent Type: | Successful Summit Attained | | Peak: | Torreys Peak | | Location: | USA-Colorado | | Elevation: | 14267 ft / 4348 m |
Ascent Trip ReportSummited Torreys after descending Grays north face. Again, another easy hike to the summit. Several other hikers had climbed the Kelso Ridge route with watermelon, beer, a radio, and a BBQ and burgers; and turned the summit of Torreys into a 4th of July party. I was surprised at the amount of snow still left on Torreys. We had one fairly long snow crossing after descending to the saddle between Greys and Torreys. Nothing technical.
