As long as we're playing "Name That Peak", anybody know/ever skied this one (E of Teanaway Peak)?  The ski line in the pic (taken from Stu) appears to go all the way to Ingalls Creek.


Three Brothers may be accessed from "Old Blewett"/ Scotty Cr and over North Shaser by snowmobile. Some access the area by going up from King Cr and over.

It is accessible self-powered, two of us in WMC have done so. I have been there self-powered over 30 times on skis before snowmobile domination of the area. I have gone there fewer times by snowmobile in recent years since it is sometimes busy with snowmobile riding.  I have never skied the chutes toward Ingalls. My favorite skitour there is to summit Navaho and ski the NE bowl, climb back up Fall Cr and to the of summit of Three Brothers, then ski that long falline back down to the start of the tour.

I've playing with this product [ www.roselinemaps.com/ ] to label panorama photos, and combined with Topo, to identify peaks visible from any known point. I've played "name that peak" several times on Blue Lake Col. This year I'm go up armed with a preprinted Topo map with all the names and bearings.

[no financial gain, but do know the developer]

Wow, thank you WMC! I'm definitely going to have to check that out next season. Have you ever looked down the N side of that peak towards the Ingalls Creek drainage? Curious to know how far down the ski line goes. (Can't tell from looking at it from Stu.)

Glenn B - I've got access to an extra sled. Hit me up next year if you want to get some Teanaway pow.

Wow, thank you WMC!  I'm definitely going to have to check that out next season.  Have you ever looked down the N side of that peak towards the Ingalls Creek drainage?  Curious to know how far down the ski line goes.  (Can't tell from looking at it from Stu.)


As I recall looking from the summit is nothing to catch attention- windblown snow and rocks. Right on the top is lesser-angle slope leading to what appears to be cliff, but I never really went down and looked. Looking over at the Navaho NE side grabs one's attention from up there. There is a huge amount of open slope terrain in that drainage, Etienne Cr. The cirque has Miller Peak on the south with a steep face and a north-facing bowl, then 'Little Navaho' that gets the attention of snomo high-markers whose tracks sometimes look like they tried to tap the big cornice (?) at the top of their climb. And then Navaho and the Three Brothers peaks have a lot of skiing on a couple of aspects. Directly south from Brothers summit is a long slope that can be fine corn snow skiing, but gets lots of snomo tracks also.

How is the access into the Teanaway now?
