| The road in is beastly and our Prius would not have survived. Beautiful and remote, though, nice to be in a less crowded place. | |

| Great weather. Fun and challenging hike and solo climb over two days. Wondering if the last 50 ft or so from the east to get to the north slope is really class 2. Fun and challenging but pretty steep rock with all four limbs involved. | ||

| All in all, a fun route with some interesting variety to the summit of an impressively sharp 14er. Climbed with SMG. | |

| I didn't care too much for the section of the hike below Red Lake, hot and brushy. After that, it was fun. | |

| skotty | A lot of rocks Date Climbed: Sep 2, 2007 | |
| This route takes a bit of work and patience with lose rock on the section that is said to be class 3. Going up high all the way to the nadir of the Split-Prater saddle before traversing left to the class 3 notch takes a lot less effort than taking a direct line through lose rock to the notch. | |

| justinjohnsen | First time up Date Climbed: Aug 26, 2007 | |
| An awesome summer climb over two days. A warm up on Tinemaha, where AMS stopped me and thunderclaps stopped the others a meager few hundred feet short of the peak. A night to acclimate at Red Lake, one of the prettiest campsites ever (the established sites have windbreaks around them). A morning trip to Split via the standard dry season gap. A long hot slog back to a jeep with icy cold beer and watermelon, yes. | |

| Sam Page | Windy slog Date Climbed: Jun 1, 2002 | |
| We took two days for the climb. We camped above the lake (mistake) and suffered an incredibly windy night in bivy sacks. We then cramponed up exhilaratingly steep snow (left of the normal route) to gain the north slope. I got somewhat lost on the descent and was later forced to ford a raging torrent. It was a strenuous two days. | |
