Description

Little Annapurna is an 8,440 foot tall peak located within the heart of the ever-popular and stunningly beautiful Enchantment Lakes area in Washington state. Summitpost calls Little Annapurna one of the "trademark peaks" of  the area because of how frequently it is photographed. The namesake comes from the resemblance of the shape of the south face of the Himalayan peak, Annapurna. From the summit, you have excellent views of Tahoma (Mount Rainier) on a clear day, the entire Enchantment Lakes area, as well as a stunning vantage point to enjoy views of Dragontail and Stuart peaks.

Description

Rota traçada pelas incríveis trilhas de Santa Bárbara do Tugúrio - MG, foi traçada com o intuito de pegar os pontos mais duros que existem na cidade e também os que tem as maiores belezas naturais. O percurso se inicia na subida chamada de Tinguá, onde conta com lindos visuais, principalmente quando se vai no início da manhã, no alto é possível ver o "mar de montanhas" que cerca a cidade. Após essa subida fazemos a trilha por cima da Cachoeira do Ramalho, que nos brinda com uma descida de frente para a queda d'água, uma das maiores do estado de MG, com mais de 100m de altura.

These two grand freestanding mountains, Shuksan and Baker, are a prominent mountain athlete curiosity as they stand on the skyline...

Can they both be climbed in a day?

Individually, both Mount Baker and Mount Shuskan are classic Pacific Northwest climbs and coveted ski descents (as documented in "Fifty Classic Ski Descents").  Normally, Baker is a two or three day guided climb, while Shuksan is often done in one or two days.

Broken Top Bottle Shop to Broken Top Mountain (OR)

Description

A multi-sport test-piece that starts and ends at the iconic "Broken Top Bottle Shop" via the summit of the Broken Top mountain.  The only rules are that you must ride the Mrazek singletrack and the Met-Win (trail 99) to approach and descent from the wilderness boundary.  The mountain itself can be climbed via any route, although we recommend the classic NW ridge.  Near the summit is a 15' block that requires some 4th/easy 5th class scrambling.    

FKTs can be recorded for both the entire route (up and down), as well as for just the ascent from the bottle shop to the summit.
