Mount Dickey Details

It's not often that something makes Yosemite's Half Dome seem insignificant, but the east face of Mt. Dickey is a mile-high sheer granite wall -- as tall as two Half Domes. The 9,545 Mt. Dickey sits on the west side of the Great Gorge of Ruth Glacier, and its east face is a highly technical climbing challenge (the west face has far easier routes to the summit).
