| Climbed in 2005 and 2012. Both via Gouter Route. Awesome feeling to get to the top both times. Second time we hit the summit just as the sun came up over the Eastern Alps. Wrap up warm kids | |

| ZeroFC | Trois Mont Traverse Date Climbed: Sep 7, 2012 | |
| Free solo ascent made on the morning of Sept. 7th. From speaking to the staff at the Refuges Des Cosmiques, no one had summited this route in nearly 2 weeks due to a high avalanche risk advisory in effect and new crevice formations which were deemed difficult to spot because of fresh snow. Close to 100 climbers at the refuge, 8 of us set out and 6 (4 person team and two soloists) of us made it to the summit. It took nearly 12 hours to summit(2pm) - there was no trail after Mont Blanc du Tacul and we took a vertical ice climb through Mt. Maudit. I took another 12 hours going down the Gouter route till I arrived in the Chamonix Valley (2am) in one giant 24 hour full traverse effort. | ||

| My first big trip - very fulfilling! Trained like hell for it (from nothing) for a few months and found it relatively easy. | |

| 1st attempt on Gouter route. No summits for a week before and after due to huge wind in the summit area. Hundreds summited that day... | |

| RyanHoover | Strong winds Date Climbed: Jul 30, 2012 | |
| Solo'd up the Gouter Route. 60-70 mph winds blasting from the Gouter Hut all the way to the summit. I had the rare chance to stand on the summit alone. | |

| JuliusKramer | Too strong winds Date Climbed: Jul 10, 2012 | |
| Climb via Gouter route. Extremely strong winds and dark clouds blowing in towards the morning. Turned around at Vallot around 7 am. Still very happy! Beautiful sunrise and amazing days on the mountain. | |

| Nice climb. Great view. The descent to the Gouter Couloir have to pay attention. At the time we just say right up, we saw and heard huge rocks fall down. Rocks greater than yourself. Always be alert at the Gouter Couloir area and pass him quickly. Stayed in a tent. | ||
