Downclimbing and rappels leads to more scrambling then another rappel onto the pocket glacier, scramble back up to the ridge proper for the traverse between the peaks for the 2nd night bivy. The 3rd day leads up pitch after pitch of classic ridge climbing up rocky gendarmes to the west ridge and summit of Forbidden Peak. Descend by down climbing and rappelling the uber classic West Ridge, into the rappells of the Cat Scratch Gullies, and back onto the Pocket Glacier and then return to camp for a 3rd night or the walk out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdventure Options:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3-Day Climb:\u003c\/strong\u003e Focuses primarily on ascending the complete Torment-Forbidden Traverse.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4-Day Adventure:\u003c\/strong\u003e Includes additional time for pacing or weather.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClient to Guide Ratios:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2:1 Ratio:\u003c\/strong\u003e Maximum of 2 spaces per guide and 4 guests to 2 guides\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrices:\u003c\/strong\u003e Based on number of participants.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBest For\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStrong Fitness:\u003c\/strong\u003e Capable of handling 3-4 consecutive days of strenuous activity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRock Climbing Experience:\u003c\/strong\u003e Up to 5.7 grade.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIce Axe and Crampon Experience:\u003c\/strong\u003e Essential for safety and efficiency.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eItinerary\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDay 1:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gear check, hike into camp, introduce and rehearse multipitch climbing techniques.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDay 2:\u003c\/strong\u003e Climb then traverse over to the Bivy or use as a weather day.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDay 3:\u003c\/strong\u003e Climb spectacular rock ridge lines up to the Forbidden Peak Summit, descend down the Cat Scratch Gullies and hike out to the trailhead.
