| Sam Page | Windy! Date Climbed: Jan 5, 2009 | |
| The wind on the summit of Lion Head was probably in the 80-90 mph range, so I bailed on my Mt. Washington attempt. I literally could not walk forward in the incredibly strong and steady wind. The twelve people who started up before me that day all turned around. | |

| The colors were great. The summit was socked in of course and was very windy and cold. Fun route. | |

| maddie77777 | Didn't care for this route Date Climbed: Sep 15, 2008 | |
| Ascended via Tuckerman, decided to come down Lion Head thinking it might be a little easier. I didn't think it was. Of course, I was in 60-80 mph winds, but if I had to do it over again, I would absolutely have descended via Tucks again. I didn't really see a big difference b/w the two routes. | |

| James_W | Much Easier than Tucks & Huntington Date Climbed: Aug 31, 2008 | |
| Still a nice hike, not too sure why they put stairs on one section. | |

| Third winter ascent of Washington on this route. Windy and -20 to -30F wind chill. Not the best conditions but not the worst I have ascended in. | |

| nartreb | winter route from pinkham Date Climbed: Apr 8, 2006 | |
| Windy at first but overall a fine day, not much below freezing with a coating of firm fresh snow. Crampons were helpful but not strictly necessary - a few people bare-booted it, others used ice axes and actually roped up, you meet all kinds of people on this mountain. I got the chance to meet "Monroe" on Lion's Head. | |
