| I can't believe the weather we had today. Bluebird skies, just amazing. Granted, it was plenty cold and, of course, insanely breezy en route to Sniktau. But, all in all, the weather was fabulous. Hiking partner: Jill. | ||

| Very cold and windy, not much snow, the East side has some very steep looking terrain and a fragile looking cornice. | ||

| Easy hike up to the summit, though the false summit was kind of a drag, then headed on over to Cupid. | ||

| JassenB | First 13er ![]() Date Climbed: Jun 21, 2008 | |
| My first 13er. Probably a great starter mountain and trainer. It kicked my butt, especially on the way down, but this is exactly what I was looking for on my path to getting in better shape and training for some 14ers. | ||

| Have climbed this route a few times. A nice peak with a super close approach. Best when deserted. (off season) | ||

| SarahThompson | Memorable hike due to tailbone injury! ![]() Date Climbed: Jan 28, 2006 | |
| This a great, short hike for getting into the winter summit game. I'll never forget my trip. My partner returned to the car after about 20 minutes because it was so cold and windy. I pressed on alone. When I got to the summit I really had to pee and had no choice but to drop my drawers in the bitter cold. The wind knocked me over in the process and I bruised my tailbone pretty badly. I think my butt was frozen though because I didn't feel it until after the hike! I still laugh when I think about it. | ||

| astrobassman | One of my favorite places to train... | |
| Great place to when you only have an hour or two to get away...or to get a quick workout in before heading down to A-basin. | ||

| phillinley | Sunny and very blustery ![]() Date Climbed: Feb 27, 2008 | |
| Good, safe winter climb after two days of hard snow in the mountains kept me from hitting my original targets. | ||

| MountainHikerCO | Winter climb ![]() Date Climbed: Dec 26, 2005 | |
| This was my 8th time climbing Sniktau. Many of those were in the winter. Access is easy from Loveland Pass. The dependable wind usually keeps much of the snow blown from the easy ridge. | ||

| This was my first time climbing Sniktau. Easy year round access has been the reason for repeats. | ||

| big_g | great easy winter summit ![]() Date Climbed: Jan 27, 2008 | |
| Just last month I turned around at Point 13,152 because I didn't want to find out how much worse it could get. This Sunday was no stroll in the park but it was at least reasonable and much more pleasant than the ski traffic back to Denver. | ||
