| A-Lex | NW Arete  | |
| This route was awesome!! I definitely understand the 100 Classics standing. The route is typical Sierra 4th, meaning you can choose any number of ways between 4th and mid 5th. I skirted across the snow field kinda high and hit some harder rock (5.6ish), so I think staying low by the lake and then coming up the gully to the notch would alleviate having to climb that harder terrain. | |

| Part 2 of Wallace Haeckel traverse. Route looks pretty loose and crappy from down low, but the traverse and the final climb up Haeckel was the best part of the day. Really fun scrambling up to the summit block. Not nearly as bad as it looks, much better than the slopes around Wallace. | |

| A fun route. The chimney just below the summit was my favorite part. The long painful march back to the TH at Sabrina that evening: Not so much fun, but part of the game, right? | |

| Traverse from Peak 13,332. Climbed up one of the crack system on the headwall to make it interesting. Left too late to do Wallace as well. | |

| Climbed peak 1380 from Midnight lake first,I highly recommend the class 3-4 north ridge. Then on to Haeckel,very easy compared to 1380. | ||

| bearbnz | NW Arete - Not Date Climbed: Sep 29, 2007 | |
| Hiked in with the intention of climbing the NW Arete, but the approach was choked with steep, brittle ice, and we had only aluminum crampons and mountaineering axes, so the approach was out of our league. Climbed the north ridge for a bit, then traversed over to the east ridge, and scrambled up from there. | |

| Some sketchy climbing bypassing some water ice at the saddle from the Hungry Packer approach was followed by some short class 4 on the way to the summit. Being soft sucks... Saw Tina and Rick's entries in the new register. | |

| Seeing that snow was icy leading up to the NW arete and that we hadn't any crampons we instead headed up the moraine to the third arete on the left and went up nice class 4 ledgges to meet the east arete route, then, to the summit. Great climb with the German wife on a peak named for her fellow countryman. | |

| thebeave7 | Route Climbed: Traverse from Mt Wallace Date Climbed: 9/24/05 | |
| A very enjoyable scramble, though a dusting of snow along the ridge made is spicier than it should have been. Tried to down climb the SE Face, a mistake. It is a nasty maze of class 4-5 chutes and cliffs. Recommend traversing toward the S ridge before heading down into the cirque. | |

| Fun climb. A little looser in spots than I was expecting, but not bad. Perfect weather while climbing, but a few hours later it was overcast and thundering. Ironic that our register entry reads "Not a cloud in the sky". | |

| Pretty easy scramble if you keep to the left, mostly just sandy ledges up to a short class 3 summit block. (Mt. Wallace was much harder!) Airy summit with some nice views. | |

| Dayhiked w/ for Day #5 of the Sierra Challenge. A very nice hike in, although the class 3 was disappointing - just a lot of sandy ledges. The summit area was a little area, and the views were awesome! | |

| Penelope May and I climbed this clean, esthetic arete from our camp at Hungry Packer Lake. We found the glacier very icy and the last few hundred feet a challenge with alluminum crampons and axes. The descent is very loose and steep. But the arete is beautiful and mostly class 4. Recommended. | |
