Pinocchio Pinnacle - East Face

From the Lower Saddle, traverse around the West side of this pinnacle to the notch between it and Bonney's Pinnacle. Pass beneath a large gap and climb a face with many features to the summit. I soloed the route so am unsure of the gear, but don't fall.

This is the lower (left) of the two pinnacles at the base of the North Ridge of Middle Teton. It is named after it's profile as seen from the summit of Bonney's Pinnacle. It is passed but not often climbed by climbers ascending the North Ridge. Climbing this and/or Bonney's Pinnacle are a great addition to an ascent of the North Ridge and provide an excellent view of the South side of the Grand Teton if one has the energy and an hour to spare.

Technique.
