Ten Peak Mountain, North Buttress. This is the rather prominent buttress which can be seen on the Sierra Club poster, “The Wild Cascades. In mid-August, Phil Leatherman and I made the approach via the White River trail and a cross-country high route through a lovely, untrammeled basin. The climbing on this 1800-foot granitic buttress ranged from third class to fifth class (up to F7 or F8). Grade II or III.
