Report
Cloudripper is the high point of the Inconsolable Range, a subrange of the Palisades stretching 14 miles from the Buttermilks in the north to Mount Agassiz in the south. I ascended a steep chute on the west face of the peak from the uppermost Chocolate Lake and returned via the standard DPS route to the north, bagging the nearby Vagabond Peak along the way.
