| bblack99 | First 13er ![]() Date Climbed: Sep 3, 2007 | |
| A surprisingly steep first pitch and a 24-hour elevation change of over 12,000ft made this a memorable first 13er! Wonderful weather, sweeping summit views, and a fantastic sunrise over Pt. 12,915 didn't hurt either. | ||

| mtelbertman | Loveland Pass ![]() | |
| I climbed this several times....Well if you consider from Loveland Pass as climbing it??????????? But I do enjoy using this route as a great warm up and keeping in shape. I average 3 times a year with this super easy route | ||

| Jason Moore | Foggy Morning ![]() Date Climbed: Jul 28, 2007 | |
| Jon Nelson and I hiked Sniktau from the pass. The weather was great- the big rainstorm from the night before left plenty of fog in it's wake, so we had a nice break from the sun. Looking southeast at the lake 1000 feet below was quite a sight. Nice mellow warmup hike though the next hike won't be- Mount Powell. | ||

| Chris | Nice quick hike ![]() Date Climbed: Jul 18, 2007 | |
| Quick little recovery hike today. Did Sniktau from Loveland in about 45 min, then traversed over to Grizzly and ran back to Loveland. A little under 3 hours round trip. Storms were moving in early today... thunder by 11am. | ||

| Using this as a conditioning hike, I made it up in 1:10. Tried heading over to Grizzly, but the wind was nothing short of awful. | ||

| Some of my friends were skiing with the masses at A-Basin, I decided to solo this 13er instead and lose the crowds. | ||

| Hour and a half drive from Denver, took 2 hours to reach the summit and 1 hour to descend back to Loveland Pass. An awesome short hike. | ||

| This kids from the east so getting use to the altitude was the main purpose of this in preparation for the class 4 kelso ridge on Torreys | ||

| bjd5578 | Sniktau in April ![]() Date Climbed: Apr 28, 2006 | |
| This was the second time I tried Sniktau. The first time, the year before, my hiking partner and I got pinned down in a nasty wind/snow storm on the top of the ridge. This year, we were more prepared with cold weather gear and managed to knock this 13er down. Be warned: don't underestimate the wind on this peak and ridge! | ||

| I liked this short hike. It was easy to get to, and it was just strenuous enough to keep away the hordes of visitors to Loveland Pass. The views were great for a 13er, Grays and Torreys are right there, Longs Peak, the Mummy Range, the Never Summers, the Gore Range, and much more. | ||

| I took what might be my best Colorado sunset photo ever from Sniktau; peaks forever in golden light. | ||

| Gahugafuga | Fall Hike ![]() Date Climbed: Oct 23, 2005 | |
| Climbed this one after the season's first snowfall on scattered patches of snow. It gave me an excuse to play with my new ice axe so that made it worthwhile. Back down on the pass, I saw two boarders helping their buddy back to the car after he blew out his knee. So worth it to end your season for a 6" jump onto 2" of packed ice in October! | ||
