| Date is a guess, from the few years I lived in Colorado. I do remember inspecting the place wreck debris. | ||

| Via Niwot Ridge. Perfect day. No wind, no clouds, no heat...perfect! Climbed with Brenta. Descended by airplane gully. | ||

| Nice hike, but HORRIBLE winds. On our descent, we watched the beginnings of what would turn out to be a LARGE forest fire. | ||

| Sarah Simon | Navajo snowfield and northface ![]() Date Climbed: Jul 30, 2011 | |
| The snowfield was plenty steep, but the ice was minimal. Climbed via the North Face. Opted for the crack up the pink granite just below the top...and the squeeze under the dark band of rock (bomber hand-holds on grippy flakes, crappy, down-sloping footholds) reminded me just how lousy of a rock climber I am in my Scarpa full-shank mountaineering boots vs. my rock shoes! Pathetic! Had to talk my way up and over that section. :) Lunch at the summit, then descent via Airplane Gully which I think is the spawn of pure evil. The scenery is great and the wreckage makes for high drama, but the loose rocks on a steep, gravel slopes just frankly sucks. | ||

| thatnissanguy | Niwot Ridge ascent, Airplane Gully descent Date Climbed: Sep 30, 2010 | |
| What a cool summit! Loved every minute minus the scree-fest on Niwot. Looking forward to returning for the Navajo Snowfield and technical route. | ||

| StephanieLynn | North face, sorta ![]() Date Climbed: Aug 8, 2009 | |
| Took an alternate route up the north face that was about 5.2-5.3. Awesome climbing on solid rock! Would like to go back and get Dicker's Peck. With Kiefer. | ||

| Brian C | Tour! ![]() Date Climbed: Sep 11, 2010 | |
| Climbed up airplane gully. Topped out by interesting chimney (4th class?) in stead of standard route. Descended west chimney. Good route but I think harder climbing down than up. Up Apache and down the East Ledges. Was going to attempt Dickers but was waaaaaay too cold/windy. Fun day! | ||

| SenadR | Via Airplane Gully ![]() Date Climbed: Sep 6, 2010 | |
| Very windy day on Navajo Peak, after summit we decide to go descent back, it was to windy for traverse to Apache Pk. | ||

| JonW | Airplane Gully?? ![]() Date Climbed: Aug 28, 2010 | |
| We thought we were climbing Airplane Gully, but we took the gully to the right, which turned out the wrong gully. I enjoyed the more difficult climbing, but I don't think those in my party did. Ended up doing some easy 5th class face climbing. | ||

| Pete Castricone | Traverse from Apache ![]() Date Climbed: Aug 26, 2010 | |
| With Ripper333. After a long traverse from Shoshoni and Apache, we climbed the north face. Definitely some airy class 5 moves (nice work, Kim!), but after the Kasparov, no big deal. We didn't even stop on the summit. Descended to Niwot Ridge for another very long traverse. | ||

| lordhelmut014 | Traverse from Apache ![]() | |
| really cool traverse up the backside from Apache around Dicker's Peck. Pretty flawless day and a descent of Airplane Gully. | ||

| armorfoot | Favorite mountain in Colorado ![]() Date Climbed: Aug 11, 2008 | |
| Took Airplane Gully route. Attempted via Niwot Ridge but an incoming storm scared me from making it past the summit of the ridge. | ||

| Kiefer Thomas | Northish Face? ![]() Date Climbed: Aug 8, 2009 | |
| An absolutly wonderful climb. We climbed the north face and finished with another 5.3-ish chimney to the summit. A super great day! | ||

| Climbed Queens Way over Apache and up West Chimney. Descended Airplane Gully which sucks. Otherwise a nice short outing. | ||

| habaceeba | Over Niwot Ridge ![]() Date Climbed: Jul 16, 2009 | |
| Soloed over Niwot Ridge to Navajo and down the gully. The weather was perfect. The route finding on Niwot Ridge was a blast and the views spectacular. | ||

| I climbed this via the Airplane gully, which was ok. There are about 4 other routes on this mountain that I want to try! Awsome views! | ||
