| madsjim | Upper Exum ![]() Date Climbed: Aug 25, 2007 | |
| Left Lupine Meadows at 3:00 AM. We hit the step around on Wall Street around 8:00 AM, was nerve racking yet not too difficult. Not knowing the route too well slowed us down. I loved the Wind Tunnel, did not like the Friction Pitch and found an easy line past the Dihedral. Once on top of the ridge, we travesed over to Sargents Couloir on the OS and made it too the top. Very long day! | ||

| jaypisano | Best climb yet ![]() Date Climbed: Aug 19, 2007 | |
| Climbed with Jackson Hole Mountain Guides via Pownall/Gilkey as part of Summit for Someone. Parts of the route were iced over which made things interesting. JHMG was amazing- highly recommended if going guided. | ||

| A great peak! We lucked out with great weather except for an occasional snow shower on the summit. Refer to my trip report for more details. | ||

| Sara_Matisse | OS Route ![]() | |
| Tried to bring my (new to climbing boyfriend) up the route - but he was not comfortable with his abilities.. Ended up hooking up with two boys from Texas. One of the two got sick and we sent him down. Ended up having a great day with Gregg (who after we got off route by traversing almost all the way to the North side of the Grand) had to warm my frozen hands up before we completed the climb in less than an hour. Super fun day - would love to back and do the Exum Ridge... maybe someone can talk the park service into shortening those -way to long- switch backs on the approach :D | ||

| Climbed with Aaron, Barry and Cinda...bivied at the Moraine and had a long but fun day. The V-pitch was my favorite! Weather was good except for a few sprinkles descending between the Upper Saddle and Lower Saddle. Thanks to Christian and Adam for letting us join ropes on the raps...very cool of you! And good job to you doing the Complete Exum car-to-car that day!! | ||

| After getting snowed off the N. Ridge we punted and soloed the Upper Exum. Have climbed the Smith Otter Body, N. Ridge, Upper and lower Exum and Underhill. Been on top 7 times. | ||

| Bivied at Lower Saddle. The chimneys on the upper part of the route were iced up, making for a much more interesting climb than the guidebook description would suggest. | ||

| What a great way to spend a holiday! It was a last-minute trip that I'll never forget. Next time I'll take more food. And a rope ;) | ||

| I especially enjoyed the shadow of the Grand falling on Idaho as the sun rose. What a wonderful morning. | ||

| mow10 | Upper Exum Solo ![]() Date Climbed: Sep 5, 2000 | |
| I jumped the gap that was supposed to be a hand traverse on Wall Street. Later I heard Glen Exum did the same thing on his first ascent. Validation is a beautiful thing. | ||
