Trip Report: A classic Alpine Climb Up The Moose's Tooth I The Firn Line Podcast

Alpinist Suzanne Lourie discusses her recent alpine climb up The Moose's Tooth in Alaska.
During a stretch of amazing weather and conditions in April, 2024, Suzanna Lourie and her partner, Olga Dobranowski, made an ascent of the ultra-classic Ham & Eggs route on The Moose's Tooth.
The Moose's Tooth is a rock peak in the Central Alaska Range, 15 miles southeast of Denali. Despite its low elevation, it's a challenging climb due to its large rock faces and long ice couloirs. Its name comes from its structure, resembling a moose's tooth with its long summit ridge and steep drops. The true summit is usually reached via steep couloirs on the southwest, as the west ridge route is very difficult.
