Whats the actual climb like?
We start up mid-morning, hiking up through an evergreen forest above a mountain lake. This takes us to a valley that runs between the Grand and Middle Tetons. You can enjoy lunch while perched atop a giant boulder, overlooking a tiny mountain stream. Conditions vary year to year; chances are, we’ll hike up a snowfield today. Your guide will show you how to kick steps, as needed, to avoid slipping. There’s no technical rock climbing today, though at one point, you’ll be grateful to find a permanent rope offering support up a steep section of rock.
