| I climbed this route via the west ridge on a perfect weather day with no wind or even a cloud in the the sky. the scrambling was fun but allot more mellow expected. we made it car to car in exactley 9hrs.a true classic idaho scramble that even has somewhat of a trail and rock carrins from time to time. | |

| My favorite peak in Idaho so far. Got a hailstorm an hour away from the summit, but it passed, and the sun came out again. This climb had everything I like about mountains: sedimentary and metamorphosed geology, route-finding, scrambling, killer views and a ridgeline to Old Hyndman that beckoned to be tried, wildflowers, butterflies, and a cool meadow with burbling stream at the base for a lounge after the climb. Very nice. | |

| Great weather, great snow and great company. The crux was crossing the creek on the way down. The couloir on the SW face (which skiers call comma couloir) make a fine snow climb. We found some gear at the base of the couloir likely left by some skiers caught in an avalanche back in April (they survived) | |

| Made our way up the west ridge, then out onto the soutwest face to snowclimb the "comma couloir" for the last 1000 feet to the summit. A great day in the Pioneers with Michael, Pat, and Steve. Trip Report. | |

| Walked up west ridge / face route. The gully wasn't quite as steep as I expected, but it does go on forever! | |

| Up the west ridge and then over to Old Hyndman. It was good to get back on Cobb after getting lightninged off earlier this summer. I thought the west ridge was a good scramble. | |

| A hard climb. Was a great scramble the tricky part was traversing over the ribs to the gully leading to the summit. My Dad, Brother and I all made it and we earned each foot of elevation! Was the most rewarding climb I have done yet. | |

| 3 of us made it to the top. The views were a bit hazy because of the smoke from the forest fires, but we still had great views of the nearby Pioneers. A fun scramble. | |

| Did the double with Hyndman, starting from Boise that morning. Can you say whipped? | |

| SouthRaker | South West Face Scramble | |
| The first visit of most hikers to this area is to climb Hyndman Peak. Lucky for me my climbing partner had already been there and convinced me to tackle Cobb. I'm glad he did. We dicided to scramble up the SW face and found a comfortable class 3/4 route pretty much the whole way up, with only one technical scamper across a ten foot knife edge ridge about 2/3 of the way up. One of the most enjoyable trips I've taken. | |

| I climbed on the only cold, windy, rainy day so far of July. Had absolutely no clearing on the summit and the exposure was frightening with snow fields, zero visibility, and the slick rock from the precipitation. | |
