| MValentine | Another 14er! Date Climbed: Sep 29, 2012 | |
| Did a day hike and took the Old Army Pass route. We started out pretty late in the morning so we had to make pretty good time. When we resting up at the peak a glider buzzed the peak and was dangerously close to hitting it (was within about 8 feet or so). We had to hike back in the dark for an hour or so with my headlamp, but all made for an exciting day. | |

| pdx2lax | Long day! Date Climbed: Aug 19, 2012 | |
| Last year when we tried Langley we got turned back by weather, not this time around! However, it did get a little dicey, Lenticular cloud in the AM, some dark clouds later in the day when we were on the Summit, but no precip and no thunder. Got up on Friday and spent the night at Horseshoe to acclimate then started early Sat morning (4:30). Went up NAP, but were surprised by the alt difference between NAP and OAP so decided to descend via OAP. No snow on OAP so it was safe but there are parts where if you fell (or slipped on snow) you'd be KIA. Took our time getting down, got back to LA around 2 AM. | ||

| Haddadb | First 14er Date Climbed: Jul 22, 2012 | |
| It was a great first 14er. Beautiful camping spot in Cottonwood to spend a night acclimatizing. Definitely recommend an early start on Old Army Pass to get to the ridge for sunrise. | |

| joshvulich | Army Pass Date Climbed: Jul 26, 2012 | |
| Army Pass is much better than New Army Pass. Over 300 feet you don't have to climb each direction. | |

| JoeK | Army Pass slog Date Climbed: Jul 25, 2012 | |
| Quite the loose sandy slog above Army Pass. Pretty easy to find good route towards left of rock band below summit. A lot harder to find the route below Army Pass in early morning darkness :) | |

| mengbo | From Cottonwood Lakes Date Climbed: Jul 28, 2012 | |
| started from Cottonwood Lakes #2 at 5:45am. Got to the summit at 8:55am. I did not have enough food and had to borrow one energy bar from the couple (from San Diego) I met on the summit. Thanks! | |

| davenose | Perfect weather on OAP Date Climbed: Jul 15, 2012 | |
| Great campsite on the far side of Cottonwood Lake #4, just before Old Army Pass. Perfect weather; practically no wind/clouds. I talked to 2 parties who had tried climbing the day before, but were turned back by high winds & hail. You never know in the Sierras! | |

| rocketsredglare | Second time, last time Date Climbed: Jun 15, 2012 | |
| I checked summit but only got to the summit ridge. Didn't walk over to the actual summit because I was over it by the time I got up. I did this peak a few years ago with my buddy and hit the actual summit but this time so much GD scree and sand it was a BITCH! Storm rolling in from the west as well and just all around wanted to split. Great day hike though and great workout! Crossed a snow field at the top of Army pass skiing down the sand and scree from the summit was fun and ran out the last 5 miles. Go do it for the workout but it won't be fun going up after Army Pass...and I'm sure Ill go back to relieve my conscious from not actually summitting :) | |

| laswanso | Snow Date Climbed: Jun 25, 2011 | |
| There was still snow covering a lot of the route. Went up old army pass, which was completely snow covered and the hardest part. We followed where the trail would have been, on the south side. the snow was really soft on the way down, so we went down new army pass instead. Although it took a while, we found a good route down the rocks. A great 14er. | |
