Matterhorn Peak (CA)
Description
The Matterhorn stands nestled in the jagged peaks of the Sawtooth Mountain range outside of Bridgeport. From afar its triangular symmetry and steep granite arete catches the eye and, ultimately, the imagination...
North Arete:
In September of 1954, Jerry Gallwas, Wally Kodis, and Don Wilson climbed The Matterhorn's North Arete 5.7. This is only two years after Wilson and Royal Robbins invented the Yosemite Decimal System.
