| We had some time to spare so we did this real quick on the way to Ouray. Gorgeous hike with awesome views all over. I was pleasently surprised with the class 3 sections on the route. We ended up taking the class 4 chimney because we didn't get out of the corridor soon enough. Awesome views! We had the summit to ourselves! | |

| What a cool climb. I little bit of everything. Short but all the things you would want in a full day. Loved it! | |

| Holy MOSES, is there anthing NOT to like about this mountain? As soon as we left our vehicle we were surrounded by 6-ft tall wildflowers. The meadow below the peak was exploding in color. The ridge was indeed quite loose in the San Juan tradition, but it was an exhilarating ride. We had a high pressure system over us and no threat of afternoon storms - barely a cloud in the sky. Heaven on earth. | |

| iditarod81 | Great fun! Date Climbed: Sep 8, 2009 | |
| Summited after visiting friends in Durango. Never been to the San Juans before--simply grand! Talk about colorful Colorado. It started to hail around 10 am, but we were only a few hundred yards from the trailhead. | |

| Sometime in 1992, plus or minus a year. Nice hike, a little scary at the time as it was one of my very first peaks and I really felt the exposure. | |

| First trip into the San Juans, I climbed this with SW Adventure Guides to get introduced to the area. It was a little more burley than I was expecting, but GREAT FUN! | |

| Climbed this one many times, in many conditions and that crux never gets old. Great area at timberline for side hikes and exploring the highlands. We usually finish this peak off by heading back to Durango for the brew named after the mountain, makes for a nice little tradition. | |

| Great approach hike - the flowers were awesome. The ridge was fun once I got over the shock of the crux move but the looseness on the mountain gave me the creeps. I had visions of the mountain just coming tumbling down at some point. Nice short hike if you are looking for a 1/2 day adventure. | |

| one of my first solos on a mountain top. Very inspiring area. Long approach, and a welcomed sight of the peak when you break tree line. It was a beautiful day. | |
