Description

Princess Spire is a tall, slender fin of rock standing between Steamboat Rock and Tisha Spire. The Original Route is exceptionally good.

Getting There

Princess is approached from the Midgley Bridge parking area and sits in behind (north of) Steamboat Rock (see photos). From the parking area, take the Wilson Canyon Trail to the Jim Thompson Trail turnoff, then after about five minutes on the JTT, turn uphill and gain the ridge above that is followed to Steamboat. Traverse across a saddle to reach the east side of Princess Spire.
