| A better scramble than I expected, with mostly solid rock and some exposure near the top. The crux was making it past the verglas-covered rocks above Sam Mack Meadow. | |

| Did a variation on the East Arete. Less slog more climbing. Great summit with wonderful views, but what's with the "only room for two" at the summit? We had four at the summit with plenty of room. | ||

| Dayhike day #6 for Sierra Challenge. Round trip hike/scramble 9hrs. Great class 3 scrambling along the entire arete, with greater difficulty and exposure near the top. The views of Agassiz and Thunderbolt were wonderful! | |

| Climbed ropeless up and down this class 4-5 line. One of the most outragous places I've ever been. | |

| Soloed the East Arete after not climbing for almost 10 years. It was a beautiful summit and just what I needed to get me to quit smoking and start technical mountaineering again. I haven't stopped yet. Thanks, Winchell! | |

| This was my first Sierra summit requiring more than Class 2 difficulty. I remember having a great time. The climb was straightforward, with enough exposure to make it exciting. The view of the Palisades was fantastic. And, the summit of Winchell is superb! It is a very exposed summit, with room for only two people, and the view straight down the steep West Face is awesome. A great climb!!!! | |
