"Seven Fingered Jack (7FJ) is the second highest of the three 9,000 foot peaks that make up the Entiat Cirque. The other two are Mt. Maude and Mt. Fernow". Their ridges are connected forming a horseshoes shaped bowl feeding the Entiat River. At 9,100 ft, SFJ is ranked #12 on the Washington Bulger List.
Due to the long drive and the shared approach, climbers usually plan 2- or 3-day overnight trips that tag 7FJ+Maude or 7FJ+Maude+South Spectacle Butt (SSB) or 7FJ+Fenow together. A few years ago, I did an overnight trip with 2 friends for Maude+SSB. One summited both, the other turned back without summiting any and I made to the base of the summit block but failed to summit SSB.
This year I decided to tag 7FJ and redo SSB. Early October is defiantly the best time to attempt them with beautiful fall colors.
