| Josh Lewis | Awful Route  Date Climbed: Jun 27, 2012 | |
| Liba summed up my thoughts very well. The approach is very good, but the ending is just out right awful! When going down this route not only was it loose rock but at one point I slipt and lost control going down hill. To make it even worse I got tons of rocks in my shoes. When doing this mountain, do your self a favor and go up the Southwest Ridge. I do admit that this route is probably decent when snow covered, but not when it's dry! | |

| Liba Kopeckova | several times | |
| I did this route several times - it was a tradition for me to run Imogene pass run, and the following day to hike up Sneffels this way. Lately, I prefer other routes. I don't like the loose rock/boulders. Fun int he late springs - skiable couloir. | |

| gimpilator | Great Route Date Climbed: Sep 5, 2009 | |
| Although my motorcycle couldn't even make it to the lower parking lot I still had a great time. This was my favorite route out of the 7 peaks I climbed during this trip. See my Trip Report about doing seven 14ers in eight days. | |
