| JB99 | From Redcloud  | |
| Intended to come up Sunshine first but missed the turn because it was covered with avalanche debris so we came over from Redcloud. | |

| On a group hike I guided, the marmots were everywhere and ready to eat our lunches if we stepped away or turned our backs. Cheeky little buggers! | |

| Tahawus | Sunshine Peak Date Climbed: Jul 20, 2009 | |
| Climbed with Redcloud via the North Slopes from Lake San Cristobal Road. An easy traverse from the summit of Redcloud lasting only an hour. The last several hundred feet to the summit were the most exhausting but the view was well worth it. After enjoying a snack on the summit we headed back over Redcloud and back to the trailhead to rest up for tommorrow's next hike. | |

| Most memorable thing from this trip was a marmot that was very friendly and chirpy about 1/2 way up :-) | |

| Fifth of 14 14ers in 11 days. Headed over from Redcloud and descended the NW scree. Good weather, good people, and good whiskey on the summit. | |

| GeorgeJames | Traverse from Redcloud Date Climbed: Aug 2, 2008 | |
| Over from Redcloud Peak on a fine trail and a fine day. Descended the Northwest Face, returning to the Silver Creek Trailhead. I didn't mind the loose scree here all that much, but it was certainly a little tricky, especially in the gully section, and I imagine that I would not have liked going up this way. My first San Juan summits, woohoo! | |

| I really enjoyed the hike over to this mountain. It lengthened the day a bit, but hey why not try to summit if it is so close. | |

| My wife and I climbed Sunshine in conjunction with Redcloud via the standard route up Silver Creek. There was minimal snow, and we had blue, blue skies the whole entire way. We also encountered 20 plus feet of avy debris from some monstor slides that must have ran into Silver Creek proper from the north last winter. Awesome peaks!!! Went over Cinnamon Pass in the Xterra after! | |
