Nippletop

Submitted by Backcountry Explorer

Where: Zion National Park, UT
When: April 2009
Partners: Sarah Thompson & Dwight from CO

I’d had a fine time climbing Nippletop with Mike C a couple/few years earlier, so I suggested it to Sarah and Dwight after finishing up Mount Spry and Spry Canyon on a fine spring day.

Although our day in Spry was fantastic, half-way up Nippletop, the weather grew poor and a light snow began to fall.

Little did I know at the time, but as we sauntered up to the summit of this fun, little peak, a friend of mine was also reaching the summit of my two-time nemesis, The Sentinel!
