A.K.A. The Little Matterhorn

Notes: We backpacked up to Upper Red Pine Lake.
Then climbed along the tall ridge south of Red Pine (Alpine Ridge),
all the way to The Pfeifferhorn, elevation 11,326.
The hike is about 10 miles round trip, rising 3,700 feet.

Great Hikes! We're looking for a way to the top of Bridal Veil Falls from the backside. Any ideas? Any trails?

Last year, early June 2004, a friend and I hiked to the Pfiefferhorn from White Pines trailhead. We continued on through Bells canyon. Neither of us had been to the are before and it took us 16 hours to complete the hike. It was very difficult for us, but I am dreaming of going back.

I hiked this mountain for the first time 8-20-2004 5.5 hrs up and 2.75 hrs down. Very nice pictures, and a great hike
