    recognizing limitations is what keeps anyone safe out there. Good on ya. Not recognizing limitations is what keeps Search + Rescue hopping

    Love Needle Peak, been up a few times. Im pretty comfortable with exposure so I went up to the top, wicked hike. If you have not yet done Yak on the other side of the highway thats a great hike too!

    I've been to Needle twice, the "Nose" as you described it is definitely the best way to go. Its a tricky downclimb but significantly less risk than that ledge you looked at. There used to be a rope but someone cut it down without replacing it.

      We weren't able to figure it out while being swarmed by the mosquitoes. I heard the old guy who built the trail is the one who cut down the rope as it wasnt the pure experience.

      @@IdRatherBeHiking It was really refreshing to watch an Alpine/Hiking channel showing the importance of turning around when something is unsafe and the decision making of picking a route that is also acceptable to downclimb

    What a beautiful area. I'm still sore from my hike on the weekend and this video makes me want to get right back out there.

    🎉House hold hack:
    If you take a spoon put it under a stream of hot water from the sink for 30 seconds it will kill the protein that causes the mosquitoes bite to itch. ❤

      Then put the hot spoon on the insect bite- there now it makes sense.

    Been to the top of Needle twice don't remember it being like this. I see that you are wearing fairly inappropriate footwear for the trip.
