Now, this was a fun ridge scramble. There was lots of exposure and it didn't take much energy. To get to
Pocaterra, drop down to the northern ridge from Tyrwhitt. Pocaterra has two summits, both have summit
cairns, but the northern cairn has the register. For this scramble, I stayed right on the ridge. The
west side isnt as exposed as the east side, but there, you have to deal with scree. Just stick to the ridge
and watch your footing. This picture by John Ionescu.

Here is another picture of the ridge, with me slowly making my way to Pocaterra's first summit.

Finally, after many false summits, we see the first summit. The north summit is just past there. |

This is the main summit, with me looking back at the south summit. This picture by John Ionescu.
