| Marmaduke | Clear Day ![]() Date Climbed: Jun 26, 2010 | |
| Started at 6:30am and was at the summit at 9:30. Took longer than expected. Fantastic views. Great hike. Nobody hiking on the way up (3 had started at 3am & were up there when I arrived), but many going up on my way down. | ||

| bc44caesar | Northeast Ridge/Cross Couloir ![]() Date Climbed: Mar 27, 2010 | |
| Climbed the Northeast Ridge to the summit, then skied the Cross Couloir. Variable snow in the couloir, but there was knee-deep powder in a lot of places and great snow in the bowl below! | ||

| Set out to tackle the NE Ridge, but got off-route quickly and ended up freestyling some unknown ridge to the base of the couloirs. Found the NE Bowl to gain the summit, eventually. Amazing views up top, and perfect weather! | ||

| wyopeakMike | summit group photo ![]() | |
| My mother still has on her wall the photo of me and the group of college girls I met on top of Mt Tallac. Others talked about a group of college chicks hiking up the trail. Sure enough they summited when I was still there and I was the official photographer. The group shot with me in the middle was a classic. | ||

| Deltakyp | Inspirational beginnings ![]() Date Climbed: Jul 5, 2002 | |
| Climbed with a few friends after moving to the area. Hiked via Glen Alpine trail after camping there, peaceful hike with great views and served as a stepping stone to other great peaks: Pyramid, Lassen, Shasta, Whitney. | ||

| WML | unconventional assault, fail Date Climbed: Feb 27, 2009 | |
| We attempted to climb up the cross, and were not so successful. Attempted an eastside chute, and not so successful again. Made another attempt near the cross, and yet again were foiled by poor snow conditions. Happens. | ||

| hgrapid | Hot and crowded ![]() Date Climbed: Jul 18, 2009 | |
| This hike was very easy. Of course, I am in good shape at this point in the season. It was quite hot; and I went through all my water. It was 10 miles round trip from the car. The trail is probably over 9.6 miles round trip from the Tallac Trailhead. It was 101 in Reno, so Tallac was still hot. There was a group of 30 people from Sacramento that hiked that day, and the summit was very crowded. Overall, a beautiful place, but better with more solitude. | ||

| adventuretactical | Mt. Tallac East rock columns ![]() Date Climbed: Mar 19, 1996 | |
| Partner and I climbed (trad style), the East rock columns of Tallac, via the large snow slope that runs to the base of the Tallac Trailhead on the North-East side of the mountain. Fantastic rock of at least 2 pitches! Can be done alpine style, trad style or mixed if conditions are right for ice..etc! | ||
