Correction to Secor, Seven Gables
by Steve Eckert
Secor insists the south summit of Seven Gables is taller, but that's got
to be a typo. (I'm sure he knows that, because he placed the current
register last month.) The north peak is unquestionably taller, and the
entire bowl between the west and north ridges is class 2. The summit,
however, is low class 3 with a fatally exposed summit boulder that you
can clearly see from miles away. Both the north and west ridge routes
are "2S3" - class 2 for most of the route, and a common class 3 summit
approach.
