North side view of something. You love your Bear Creek. Could be north rib of triplets. Maybe Twin Peaks from similar area, but I would guess triplet rocks.

North side is correct.but wrong wilderness...you can see this part of the creek from the summit....its looks calm from there, but its actually a wobbly frustrating scramble. I'll put another pic of the white south side tommorow..but then it'lll be easy.
