Mount Triplet
March 1, 2024


Mount Triplet and its sub-peaks seen from the south on the Point of Pines Highway


Now seen from where I parked. I had to descend to near the tank shown at left before starting the ascent


The north ridge


Closer view of the north ridge and the rocky upper portion


Getting onto the north ridge


Aiming for the knob up high


Past the knob is a rock outcrop, then the summit behind


The summit rocks!


View south, Mount Turnbull in the distance


West, with "West Triplet" and Pinal Peak in back


North, I think that's the Ancha Peaks in back. A little of the San Carlos River can be seen


East, the ridge I followed up. I am parked near the bend in the road near the circular tank


Summit rocks, lucky horseshoe, a reference marker with the name stamped on it, the main benchmark painted silver but no name stamped on it


Hiking down the ridge almost back to my car
