Description

Concord Tower is the sharp peak of excellent granite directly south of Liberty Bell. It is about as high as Lexington Tower and provides some optional routes if liberty is packed out or you can double up and combine "The North Face" 5.6, or "The Cave Route" 5.8 with a Liberty Bell climb, which are both across from the Beckey route in the same gully on the north side of Concord.

Fred Beckey and John Parrrott made the first ascent of Concord Tower on 12 June 1956 via the North Face Route. The summit is at 7560'.

Getting There

From the west side, park at the Blue Lakes Trail head (approx. mile marker 161), 1 mile west of Washington Pass (NW Forest Pass required) and hike the Blue Lake trail until a climber's trail breaks off to head up to the liberty-concord gully.
