Description Suggest change

We summited this pig like feature up on the divide. You can see the pig from all over in The Park, even on the road sometimes. The climbing up to the pig has been done many times before, and during all seasons. Don't know if anyone has done the pig.... To summit the pig, do some protectionless moves up on the ass (north side) to get down throw the rope over the snout, and rap off. It is exciting because the west side drops off 1000 feet, all other sides have ledges, etc. to hang out on. To do the final escape out of there, walk/scramble north towards Andrews Glacier and walk down that.

Location Suggest change

This is west, and slightly north of Sharkstooth, approached from the Andrews Glacier area, up towards Sharkstooth.

Protection Suggest change

None for the pig. Tools and crampons for the snow, single rock rack for the 5.8 climbing up to the pig.
