| Augie Medina | Mini Traverse Date Climbed: Aug 2, 2008 | |
| Tom Becht and Glenn Gookin and me hiked from the Bishop Pass Trailhead at South Lake and exited at Glacier Lodge. This is a great peak but not quite as much fun as climbing the summit block on Thunderbolt and the Milk Bottle on Starlight. | |

| Long day doing the Palisades Traverse with Glenn and Augie. Expected it to be much harder -- especially from the notch. | |

| BradBartick | Part of the Palisades Traverse | |
| Hit NP as part of the Palisades traverse last summer. Great exposure and difficult route-finding, but Bruce kept us on course. | |

| Linked up Polemonium, North Palisade and Starlight from camp in Palisade basin. Beautiful area, and saved several peaks to make sure there will be a "next time." | |

| physics | Route Climbed: U-Notch+Clyde Variation Date Climbed: Sept 17, 2007 Date Climbed: Sep 17, 2007 | |
| climbed with fbagni. Awoke at 3AM and left camp at 4AM. The berg was easy-passable via a 70-degree ramp and we climbed 5 pitches (70m rope) of blue, grey, black, and glass ice to the notch. Climbed 2 easy pitches of rock to the ridge and traversed to the summit. Rapped the ice finishing the last 4 raps in the dark. Worn, bruised, and tired, we made it back to camp at 2AM after 22 hrs on the move. A full day, glad to finally climb North Pal via the U-notch on ice. one more CA 14er left... | |

| Fred Bagni | U-Notch Date Climbed: Sep 17, 2007 | |
| Climbed with physics. Long day. Good climb. Excellent views. Rivals Sill's. Camped 450ft below the moraine on the east side of Gayley camp by a pond. No water up above. The glacier is unrecognizable. Very melted out. Very sad. Crunchy, it felt like we were walking on broken glass. We could also hear it cracking all around us. Surprised to see so many crevasses. Some of them at least 40 feet deep. The berg was passable via a 25+ foot 70 degree wall of ice. The ice was bullet proof all the way to the top. Made it tough putting in screws. Temperatures were in the low 20's at night. Take two ropes if rapelling. Takes too long with one... | |

| lefty | Southwest Chute and Catwalks Date Climbed: Sep 16, 2007 | |
| We found a catwalk about 100 feet above the standard catwalk which we used on the ascent. We used the traditinal catwalk on the descent. One more 14er to go. | |

| poorboy44 | T-bolt to Polemonium Date Climbed: Aug 11, 2007 | |
| T-bolt to Polemonium with Shay. Altitude + regular sick = "double whammy". Nice views. Looks like some good rock climbing could be had on the West side of the Palisades. | |

| glahhg | Thunderbolt to Sill Traverse Date Climbed: Aug 19, 2007 | |
| I don't really remember this summit. It's lost in a blur of scrambling and soloing along the ridge. | |
