The southeast ridge of Buck Mountain rises from the saddle between the mountain and Static Peak. The route crosses over a bowl where Timberline Lake resides. An ice axe will be needed to cross this section in snow and ice conditions. To reach the saddle, climb through a couloir up to the ridge. Follow the ridge to the summit, with a tower ascent along the route. This is a great climb on good rock, offering an alternative to the standard East Face or East Ridge route.
