| Really lucked out with weather. The direct variation to the 5th pitch on the lower exum is incredible! | |

| Climbed the Upper Exum Ridge. Caught a lucky lighting/storm free day between two nasty ones. Did not use any guide service, just maps, photos, and a good climbing partner. First time above 13,000! Beautiful day! | |

| Direct Exum after being stormed off @ the saddle 3 days prior with the Gold Face in mind. Was going to do Cathedral traverse, but the weather window was less than perfect and so we thoguht to try Gold Face again, got to the saddle once more and saw a stowm forming, banged out Upper Exum quickly and ran down the the caves where an apocolyptic lightning storm hailed ~ 2 inches in less than 5 minutes and set small land slides from Disappointment peak hucking boulders the size of minicoopers dozens of yards into the air. We just watched in aww from the safety of the caves. Luckily nobody died up top that day. We checked and for real they could have. | |

| Climbed the Owens Spalding with Exum guide Mike Abbey and Jalil from Uray, Colorado. Early morning thunder showers and high winds subsided to bluebird skies by dawn. Awesome time! | |

| went up the Owens Spalding route with my wife and a great guide from Exum. the rappel down was not as bad as I expected. Must admit that I didnt look down during the Belly Roll and Belly Crawl pitches! Overall great climbing and great views. Favorite peak of the 300 or so that I have climbed | |

| we were one of three parties that made the summit before weather came it. it was light snow so we continued on. the guides held up their groups. It took about an hour to pass, in which time we carefully started down, and the guide groups continued up. During this time period, the rap was a free rap after a couple steps off a ledge. It's been moved since. This peak is a classic and a "lifetime" accomplishment. | |
