| Fred Spicker | East Face Couloir - variations Date Climbed: Sep 5, 2012 | |
| 2012 solo (as in alone) via the East Face Couloir as per Edwards. 1996 with Tanya Spicker via the East Face Couloir with a traverse to the couloir from the south. 1980 with Paul Bishop & Jim Spearman via the East Face Couloir directly from the base. 1978 with Monica Spicker via the East Face Couloir directly from the base. 1970 with Bill Bishop via the East Face Couloir Route as per Edwards. A great Glacier Park climb by any of the variations - but from the base up is the best. | |

| Originally planned to bag Cannon and Clements, ended up only doing Clements via the exposed goat trail on the back-side. | |

| Very enjoyable route - loved the goat trail along the north face. Clear skies and only one other group on the mountain made for a fantastic day. Hurried down to Hidden Lake from the summit - I was swimming near the outlet exactly 1 hour and 17 minutes later! Had a great time completing one of Glacier's truly classic routes! | |

| rebelgrizz | Exposure Date Climbed: Aug 24, 2009 | |
| Clements Mountain is infamous for the exposure on its North Face Goat Trail. Well, I think this mountain oozes exposure from every side, angle, and pore that it has! Enjoyable climb beginning at the climber's trail and up to the Cannon/Clements saddle and up the west ridge...but not for the faint-of-heart! Summitted with Cougar14. | |

| Climbed up to the Cannon/Clements Saddle and then went from there to the summit. The summit was closer than expected. The mountain turned out to be a really fun climb. Climbed with Rebelgrizz. | |

| Saintgrizzly | From Cannon/Clements saddle Date Climbed: Jul 20, 2009 | |
| VERY nice outing with GMS, and actually, we didn't go all the way to the saddle, but did the standard route, which cuts off towards Clements before the saddle. I was quite impressed with this mountain; somehow, and for some (no doubt stupid) reason, I had it in my head that it wasn't much of a climb. Not so! In many places the trail traverse along the north side reminded me of the Reynolds North Face Traverse. Anyway, a thoroughly enjoyable day. Now I'd like to to the East Face ascent.... | |

| Fred, I see you were climbing at about the same age I was in Glacier Park, though 9 years earlier . I am writing about those years 1979-1981 when I was an employee at Lake Mcdonald Lodge and climbing a lot, if your interested. I am slow at putting up the summitposts so bear with me. It looks as though we were in the same areas! | ||

| mprice | My favorite climb Date Climbed: Jul 8, 1979 | |
| Of all the climbs in glacier, this is my favorite by far. The climb of the East Face couloirs is challenging but not very difficult. It is like climbing giant steps so ropes are not required. The base is often deeply covered in snow (back then) so the traverse from the north saddle from Oberln was the safest way to access the couloir. Between 1979 and 1981, I climbed it 6 times, mainly as it was easily accessible from Logan Pass and fun to do. Was fortunate enough to witness "Specter of the Brocken" when a cloud came up the face and the sun cast our shadows into it. An incredible experience! | ||
