| RyanS | Route Climbed: Traverse from Pacific Date Climbed: July 4, 2005  | |
| Climbed Atlantic as part of a long loop including Helen, Father Dyer, Crystal & Pacific. Loved the scramble from Helen to Father Dyer! We finished with a traverse back east along Pacific's east ridge. | |

| Asphazell | Route Climbed: NW Ridge from Mayflower Gulch Date Climbed: November 2005 | |
| Beautiful day out in winter. Halfway up the ridge we were socked in by a snowstorm decreasing visibility. When my water started to freeze on the summit it was time to head down! | |

| hhsilleck | Route Climbed: SW Face, descent NW ridge Date Climbed: July 2003 | |
| We climbed off trail up a loose and unpleasant gully (not recommended) and descended the more pleasant NW ridge back into the Mayflower Creek area. Climbed with Josh Ramey (ColoradoJosh). | |

| Climbing up the trail from McCullough Gulch, you encounter a huge boulderfield at the base of the crux pitch, a rocky scramble to the saddle north of the summit. Once past this obstacle, the summit is an easy stroll to the southwest. | |

| After Crystal and Pacific Peaks, Atlantic was actually a relief: I wore my snowshoes all the way to the top. The trip down Atlantic's West Ridge, however, was tricky and dangerous w/ tons of snow and some ice. Started before sunrise this morning; didn't get out till after sunset. TR coming soon... | |

| miztflip | Route Climbed: Northeast Face from Highway 9 Date Climbed: October 23, 2004 | |
| Summited after the most recent snow storm. The head wall had about 5 inches of soft snow over a hard, icy base layer. Decided to go from the highway for a more enjoyable trip with a friend. Also took in Pacific Peak. | |

| mtnhiker13 | Route Climbed: From Pacific Date Climbed: 6/22/2003 | |
| It seems like a lifetime ago that we climbed Atlantic. It was only one year ago tomorrow. We climbed Pacific first from Mayflower and then did the traverse over to Atlantic. Long day and I remember the ridge coming down Atlantic had some tricky snow patches. We also wallowed in the willows trying to get back to the car. Great day though. | |

| Still a fair amount of snow in the valleys, but the trio made a great day hike. | ||

| Climbing all three (Crystal, Pacific and Atlantic) is a great hike. We lost almost 700 feet by glissading down a snow slope on the north ridge. Great fun! | |

| JonBradford | Route Climbed: Traverse from Pacific, then down the West Ridge Date Climbed: June 7th 2001 | |
| A fun route to be sure. The ascent of Pacific followed by a visit to the highest lake in north America (Pacific Tarn) followed by topping out on Atlantic Peak, followed by a descent of Atlantic's airy west ridge, is a sojourn not to be missed. Jon | |

| Gorgeous! Not a soul in sight. Broad, snowy summit. Snow is getting just soft enough for some serious post-holing. Descent via the exciting west ridge. Windy, sunny, and warm. | |
