| McCannster | Slog is an understatement  Date Climbed: Dec 13, 2011 | |
| ...but I do like an occasional slog. A well packed boot track most of the way to Ouzel Lake combined with good weather made this December ascent possible. Something like 14.5 miles RT from the winter parking, 10.5 hours car to car. Awesome views of Longs/Meeker. | |

| shknbke | With Bruno from Ouzel Falls Date Climbed: Oct 28, 2011 | |
| Headed up the broad n.e. slopes from Ouzel Falls. Bushwacking was tedious with lots of snowy deadfall and some serious wallowing near treeline. The banshees beat us down a bit the last 500 feet or so. Nice early season effort! | |

| Luciano136 | Cross country from Ouzel falls Date Climbed: Oct 28, 2010 | |
| A long day cross country from Ouzel falls with Kevin (shknbk). RT mileage was about 12.5mi. Plowing through feet of powder made for a 13h epic. Windy and cold on top but clear skies with great views! | |

| This was my first trip to the Wild Basin area and I have to admit that I was highly impressed. Area was still covered in snow. Left trail at Ouzel Falls and headed SW through the trees to gain Copeland's east ridge. On the way back we descended to Ouzel Lake and followed the trail from there. | |

| Total acents = 2. First time from Wild Basin Ranger Station, up via Ouzel Lake, down the south slopes (a little cliffy in places) to Pear Lake and back to the ranger station via the Finch Lake Trail. 2nd time from Ouzel Lake and back the same way. | |

| NanitaD | Route: From Ouzel Lake Date Climbed: Jul 24, 1991 | |
| I climbed this solo from the Ouzel Lake side. I saw another climber decending below me on the east ridge as I was going up the north east side. When I finally reached the summit after the long (unending) tundra slope I couldn't get the lid off of the summit register, so I took a self timed photo of myself and a panorama from the summit. Even though it is not difficult climbing it is a long day with 4646ft of elevation gain. | |
