I need pictures of Tehipite Valley!

Post by limpingcrab »

Hello

I'm planning a 7 day climbing trip to Tehipite this summer and am looking for pictures to minimize scouting time and maximize climbing time!

Pretty much every picture from down there is of Tehipite Dome, but that's not what I'm interested in. The plan is to put up routes on the other formations since the dome has gotten all of the attention in the past.

I've seen the valley from tehipite dome and the gorge of despair, but I've never been to the bottom of it and would love to see some of your shots of the cliffs!

Thanks
-Daniel

All my images show either the dome or looking at the Gorge of Despair. The problem with the valley is it's a fairly dense Oak forest so there is nothing to take a photo of.

Hi Daniel,

See if these two links give you anything to work with, second link contains pisture too:

I don't give out specific route information, my belief is that it takes away from the whole adventure spirit of a trip, if you need every inch planned out, you'll have to get that from someone else.

Thanks for the replies. I've seen most of those pictures but because I've been searching with Google instead of Yahoo there were a few new ones.
