| Solo. Left meadow campsite (11,400) at 6:15am, summit at 7:30am. Slight route alterations due to snow. Post-climb shower in the waterfall at the meadow. A memorable morning. | ||

| LOVED this climb. Took the wrong ramp, did some class 4 scrambling to the top. Views of Vestal at 8 PM - priceless. For more info see my trip report. | ||

| MattGreene | Another cool scramble ![]() | |
| Mid July 2010 - I climbed Wham ridge on such a perfect day, that Arrow wouldn't let me go back to camp until I climbed it too. I took the wrong ramp and ended up doing some low class 5 scrambling, but the rock was so solid that I couldn't resist. | ||

| chicagotransplant | NE Ramp/Rib ![]() Date Climbed: Aug 8, 2009 | |
| Climbed the NE Ramp/Rib route with Jamie after Wham Ridge, beautifully clear day (rare in "monsoon season") allowed us to do both. This route was a lot of fun, we ascended directly on the ridge between the two summits which was a little harder than the standard ledges used for the summit pitch. Really nice climb on a great peak, a classic scramble! | ||

| Makes a great one-two punch with Vestal! The rock did get a little tedious near the top but some really decent scrambling! The rock on the mountain is incredable. | ||

| Climbed the standard route on Arrow as dessert after Vestal's Wham Ridge. I thought that the cool ramp system was almost us fun as Wham Ridge. These two peaks are so unique! | ||

| I never do these summit logs, but Arrow was probably the most satisfying climb I've accomplished. Last year I turned back while climbing alone on the ramp because a late summer storm had left a lot of snow on the route. I sat out that storm for two days staring at the ramp and my nerves were shot for the climb. It really bothered me because the route was certainly within my abilities. This year I ran up the route without any hesitation, which helped shake loose the nagging self doubt I've felt for the last 10 months. The mountain itself is in my opinion the most startling and unique peak in the state. | ||
