| astrobassman | Incredible Climb Date Climbed: May 22, 2012 | |
| This was the best day out in the mountains in a long time for me. The conditions made this climb pretty straight forward. We simul-climbed the entire route. 3 of the 4 ice sections were very easy, and the 4th was a bit awkward but very manageable. The hardest part of the day was the downclimb when we got off route before the knife edge on Iron Gates. This route lived up to its reputation. | |

| JonW | Where's the ice? Date Climbed: Jun 11, 2011 | |
| Fun, mellow climb. I was expecting it to be more difficult. We carried a rope and light rack, but they didn't come out of the pack. Very little ice and a lot of snow. Caught delayed descending the slabs and should have came down the loft. | |

| Sorry to hear about the passing of your good friend, Doug. Anyone who has persistence like that is always missed. Hope you're still getting out. | |

| StephanieLynn | A dream climb! Date Climbed: Jun 15, 2010 | |
| Probably my favorite climb to date! I love those tight, inset couloirs. A storm that rolled in a couple days prior to made conditions almost perfect for climbing. The views towards Longs were incredible. With Kiefer and a few others. | |

| DougBenton | First Technical Ice! Date Climbed: May 26, 2008 | |
| My good friend and former climbing partner Keith Spencer took me up this during absolutely perfect weather and excellent conditions. It was on or about this date, we both forgot our cameras, and he passed while climbing in Wyoming about 18 months later. He was an extraordinary individual to climb with, which makes this a very memorable climb for me. | |

| Kiefer Thomas | Incredible! Date Climbed: Jun 15, 2010 | |
| This now ranks as one of the best 3 all time favourite climbs. An absolutely killer route. Ice was really inconsistent, brittle and melting fast. Used 3 chocks (4-6-8) and a #2 and a #3 cam to protect. Ice was too soft for screws and TONS of veriglass. Roped up for three pitches, free-climbed & belayed everyone else on the last section of difficulties. Will definately repeat this route!! | |

| Darren9 | One of the best | |
| Dreamweaver is one of the most fun and exciting couloirs I have climbed in the last 10 years. Interesting, steep in places, with great views. | |

| SarahThompson | Made my spring :) Date Climbed: Jun 7, 2009 | |
| 6/7/09 - After a warm, sloppy spring finally there was some cold overnight temps and the route had an unexpectedly substantial amount of ice. There were two short mixed rock/ice cruxes that we roped up for and protected with rock pro. The upper narrow section of the couloir also had some nice ice that we climbed unroped. My first "real" experience on ice and I liked it (though I thoroughly appreciated the belays)! As if the incredible climb isn't enough, the views during it are out of this world. A route can't get any more classic. Topped it off with a fun scramble across the Meeker Ridge knife edge and descent through the Iron Gates. 6/2/13 - Prime conditions, much more ice this time! Classic for sure. | |

| Ialewis | Great Solo! | |
| I have climbed this route many times. In good conditions you can go round trip from the parking lot in six hours. | |

| Lotsa fun, nice line for my first solo technical ice line back when - nice water ice at the chockstones. Bivvied below Meeker, wonderfully quiet, excellent weather. | |

| Such a sweet route, it was in good condition. Climbed with Timothy Pearl and Jim Clarke. Great mixed snow, rock and ice. We had the most amazing summit experience when two F-16s blasted right above The Loft. Nice Memorial Day tribute. | |

| Chris | Great route! Date Climbed: May 27, 2007 | |
| Awesome route! Climbed with CharlesD, Marella, and Mike. Perfect conditions. The descent of the East Ridge really sucked... nastiest talus I've ever been on. | |
