| Timothy Pearl | The Recon Mission  Date Climbed: Nov 6, 2007 | |
| Summited on way to check out chasm view and the start of Longs' North Face route for this winter's mission. Then on to Storm. Lots of wind today too... not a whisper in the trees but Mt Lady W had gusts between 50-60mph. | |

| Kruck | Wind! Date Climbed: Nov 3, 2007 | |
| Guy I met on the moraine said it's windy like that all the time, but the general conseensus was 50 mph gusts. Enough to blow me down stretching for a 2+ move 3/4 up. Mountain's bigger than it looks. | |

| argothor | Lady Washington and Battle Mountain Date Climbed: Oct 27, 2007 | |
| Hiked up from the Longs Peak Trailhead and climbed the eastern slope. Descent was down to Granite Pass and then over to Battle Mountain. Fine clear, yet cool, October day. | |

| Crossed over after climbing Storm Peak. A quick scramble from the Boulder field. Accidentally climbed the lower South summit first. | |

| One day after I left sea-level Holland, I went up to this mountain. Although it is just a walk up, I was exausted. | |

| Art Vandalay | Great View Date Climbed: Aug 3, 2007 | |
| Climbed up to the ridge from the boulderfield to get a look at the diamond. Continued up to the top. That view is unbeatable when the skies are clear. | |

| shanahan96 | east slopes Date Climbed: Apr 28, 2007 | |
| climbed the east slopes with jamie. soft snow made the blocky route much more of a pain than it needed to be. the view of the diamond from the summit is dynamite! descending the north ridge towards granite pass was a much nicer route. caught a few, short glissades on the way out. jamie | |

| mow10 | not longs | |
| Aborted attempt at longs due to insane winds. This was a fun objective given the weather. The view of the Diamond is awesome. | |

| belexes | East Slopes Date Climbed: Jul 4, 2006 | |
| I hiked to the Mills Moraine/Chasm Lake junction, then climbed directly up to the top. Then I went down the north side to Granite Pass and returned via the Longs Peak Trail. I started at 6 AM, reached the summit around 9:30, and got back at 12:30 PM. Absolutely no one else was climbing MLW, everybody was headed for Longs (I was a little tempted to go for Longs myself). There are a lot of spiders in the talus. The sky was clear at the start, but clouds built up surprisingly quickly, and by the time I got down past Granite Pass, it was cloudy and raining a little. | |

| altitude14er | East Slopes via Longs Peak Trailhead Date Climbed: Dec 26, 2005 | |
| An uneventful day with hard packed snow that didn't require snowshoes. The summit was freezing and offers an amazing view of Longs Peak East Face. | |
