| myles | Part of Haeckel-Wallace Date Climbed: Aug 4, 2012 | |
| Climbed Haeckel and Wallace from Moonlight Lake. By passed chimney in summit block to make a step around move to get onto the NW side of the summit block. Fun day out. | |

| Over from Huxley on the way out after a long weekend in Ionian Basin. Climbed up the scree slope to the saddle with Wallace, then followed the south ridge straight to the summit. Easy to follow and I really enjoyed the route here, all the way to the summit. Descended more ledges straight down to the lake to the southeast and hiked out. | |

| bc44caesar | Northwest Arete Date Climbed: Aug 21, 2011 | |
| Solo day trip, 5 hrs to summit. Used crampons to get to the col, but the snow was fairly soft. Started up the wrong ridge, climbed some in the gully, and finally got on the NW Arete. Downclimbing the arete was probably as fun as climbing up it though. Discovered on the way back that traversing the lake-shore on either side of Hungry Packer is not possible. I highly recommend the route! | |

| Soloed this from Hungry Packer a good 20 years ago, descending the E. Ridge. A great day in the mountains. | |

| Class 4, with a 5th class crux move. Day hike traverse to Wallace afterward. Beware of dangerous sliding boulders in the area | |

| A-Lex | NW Arete | |
| This route was awesome!! I definitely understand the 100 Classics standing. The route is typical Sierra 4th, meaning you can choose any number of ways between 4th and mid 5th. I skirted across the snow field kinda high and hit some harder rock (5.6ish), so I think staying low by the lake and then coming up the gully to the notch would alleviate having to climb that harder terrain. | |

| Climber Dave | Wallace Haeckel traverse Date Climbed: Aug 28, 2009 | |
| Part 2 of Wallace Haeckel traverse. Route looks pretty loose and crappy from down low, but the traverse and the final climb up Haeckel was the best part of the day. Really fun scrambling up to the summit block. Not nearly as bad as it looks, much better than the slopes around Wallace. | |

| boyblue | South Ridge Solo Date Climbed: Oct 2, 1988 | |
| A fun route. The chimney just below the summit was my favorite part. The long painful march back to the TH at Sabrina that evening: Not so much fun, but part of the game, right? | |

| fossana | traverse from 13,332 Date Climbed: Jul 2, 2008 | |
| Traverse from Peak 13,332. Climbed up one of the crack system on the headwall to make it interesting. Left too late to do Wallace as well. | |

| dshoshone | East face Date Climbed: Aug 18, 2007 | |
| Climbed peak 13,380 from Midnight lake first,I highly recommend the class 3-4 north ridge. Then on to Haeckel,very easy compared to 13,380. | |

| bearbnz | NW Arete - Not Date Climbed: Sep 29, 2007 | |
| Hiked in with the intention of climbing the NW Arete, but the approach was choked with steep, brittle ice, and we had only aluminum crampons and mountaineering axes, so the approach was out of our league. Climbed the north ridge for a bit, then traversed over to the east ridge, and scrambled up from there. | |

| ScottyS | Southeast Face Date Climbed: Sep 29, 2007 | |
| Some sketchy climbing bypassing some water ice at the saddle from the Hungry Packer approach was followed by some short class 4 on the way to the summit. Being soft sucks... Saw Tina and Rick's entries in the new register. | |

| plume | Northeast face to ridge Date Climbed: Jul 1, 2007 | |
| Seeing that snow was icy leading up to the NW arete and that we hadn't any crampons we instead headed up the moraine to the third arete on the left and went up nice class 4 ledgges to meet the east arete route, then, to the summit. Great climb with the German wife on a peak named for her fellow countryman. | |

| thebeave7 | Route Climbed: Traverse from Mt Wallace Date Climbed: 9/24/05 | |
| A very enjoyable scramble, though a dusting of snow along the ridge made is spicier than it should have been. Tried to down climb the SE Face, a mistake. It is a nasty maze of class 4-5 chutes and cliffs. Recommend traversing toward the S ridge before heading down into the cirque. | |
