| pvalchev | Echo Peaks Date Climbed: Jul 1, 2006 | |
| Did 6 or 7 of these, took no beta with me and tried to have a lot of fun by going up fun-looking places. Scared myself off what must be #9, I went to check it out but quickly reconsidered. Wanted to traverse to Cockscomb and Unicorn but difficulty on the ridge and the large amounts of snow made me call it a day... was quite happy, beautiful place!! | |

| SawtoothSean | Solo Trip Date Climbed: Oct 17, 1996 | |
| Did #1 on a solo trek through the backcountry for 4 days at the end of the season- The days were warm and the nights were cold. Amazing country, especially with no else around at this time. | |

| Vladislav | Route Climbed: #1, #2, #5 Date Climbed: 22 October 2005 | |
| On the way from Echo 2 to Echo 3 My body starts shaking vigorously. As I stop the shaking abates, As I make a move forward It starts again with increased intensity. A brief vision of a climber Tumbling down the steep West Face Is convincing enough: There will be no more climbing for me today. Ashamed I retrace my steps, Turned back by a mere class 3. | |

| Matthew Holliman | Several peaklets Date Climbed: Sep 23, 2005 | |
| Sep 23, 2005, No. 3 - West Face: Very cool climb up steep, exposed flakes. Continued on to Echo Ridge, with absolutely spectacular views of Matthes Crest. Oct. 22, 2006, No. 5, 7, 8, 9: Climbed with Bob, Sam, and Glenn as an easier day after Cleaver/Blacksmith. Wasn't feeling good (dizzy due to lack of sleep the previous couple of nights), so I bailed on the outing after those peaks. | |

| Dave Daly | Route Climbed: Echo 1, 2, 7, 8 Date Climbed: 9 Oct 2005 | |
| Didn't have time or the desire to climb them all (especially #9). Just out there to enjoy the afternoon. Watched some slow pokes on Cathedral on Sunday. it appeared there were only 3 parties (at best) on Cathderal that day...a new record! | |

| Deb | Route Climbed: A few of them Date Climbed: 10 October 2005 | |
| I can't remember what peak is what, but I only hit up three of them due to exhaustion and knobs popping off under my hiking boots. Interesting view of Yosemite Valley from up there eventhough I hated that knifeblade crotch shuffle required to top out on one of those things. Does the wind ever stopped blowing?! | |

| GlennG | Route Climbed: West face Date Climbed: September 25th, 2005 | |
| Matthew and I climbed this as our second peak of the day after Tresidder. I liked the slabs coming up the west face, and the final 3rd class sharp edge to the summit of number 3. I would like to go back and get all 9, I didn't do any others as I had very little beta, and we were on our way to Echo Ridge and Cockscomb. | |

| Came back and did #1,#2, #3, #6, #8, #5. Running low on time for the rest of our traverse so we left for Echo RIdge after these. Looks like I'll have to go back again for the remaining ones! | |

| dnafields1995 | Route Climbed: #1, #2, #3 all via west side. Date Climbed: June 2002 and August 2002, September2003. | |
| Climbed Echo Peaks #1, #2, #3 and #6 with Bob Swanson. I thought they were so cool, that i took some novice climbers up the following August to do #1, #2, and #3. Not every wanted to climb #3. But they all loved the hike up. What a great view of Cathedral and Matthes Crest. Went up one last time with Bob and Jeff. This time #1, #3 and only thought about #4. Jeff's first time camping out over night in the states. | |

| Climbed #1, #2, and #3. Mostly class 3, some route challenges ended up with sections of class 4. No one else on peaks all day - though did hear climbers topping out over on Cathedral Peak. | |

| mpbro | Route Climbed: #5 from the south Date Climbed: 20 September 2003 | |
| After a long day of climbing it seemed ridiculous to ascend each and every one of the Echo Peaks. So I just picked a representative one (#5) and climbed it. Nice rock and nice views. I should have done #3, which looked more interesting (and bigger). | |

| Joe Hanssen | Route Climbed: Various Date Climbed: July 20th '03 | |
| Scrambled up a few of the Echos then got out before the charcoal grey thunder clouds opened up on us. Later in the day a flash flood warning for the surrounding areas was issued and a swift water rescue was made in the Tuolumne River. I plan to finish the rest of the Echos on a future trip. | |
