North America, United States, California—Sierra Nevada, Jordan Peak Area

Publication Year: 1983.

Jordan Peak Area. In late spring 1981, Eddie Joe and I discovered and climbed the first routes on a triple rock formation on the south side of Jordan Peak, just north of Camp Nelson. In the following month, Eddie, Randy Jewitt, Patrick Paul, Gary Kunkel, Debbie Winney and I put up 12 new one- to two- pitch routes from 5.8 to 5.10+. We called this rock formation “Trilogy” and the major buttress/tower on the southeast side “Aerie Pinnacle.”
