| Bob Sihler | Redeemed myself  Date Climbed: Jul 7, 2010 | |
| A serious thunderstorm turned me back just about 100' from the summit in 2007. This time, Tim and I started early in the day, climbing Chief Mountain first and then traversing to Brown and down to Kirwin, from where we walked 4 miles along the road back to our cars. It was nice to actually tag Brown and see the views without having to run. | |

| Bob Sihler | False summit only Date Climbed: Jul 7, 2007 | |
| Honesty requires me as the page owner to note that I did not reach the true summit. As I scrambled through the fun Class 3 section beneath the false summit, the thunderstorm I'd been watching and admiring finally reached me. I made it my goal to at least tag the false summit, which I did. Then the hail started hitting me, lightning got closer, and thunder sounded like a rock concert. But I was able to see the true summit and study the way there. It would have required 5-10 more minutes of easy walking and less than 100' of elevation gain from the connecting saddle. | |
