| spotly | North Colouir Date Climbed: Jun 28, 2009 | |
| Via the Northwest Ridge. Climbed with Dave Palmer. The old road and the burn area were snow-free. Ran into some snow nearing the ridge then snow traverses after decending to Coney Lake. The colouir was very consolidated but the upper portion was melted out with loose gravel the last 100 feet. Took the ridg on the descent and had some fun with that. Clear sky and perfect temps. | |

| Derek Franzen | Route Climbed: Cross country from Prusik Pass Date Climbed: July 1981 | |
| With E Sandbo, M Woodmansee & L Rasmussen. Left after work Friday and drove to Stuart Lake/Colchuck Lake TH. Readied packs at TH for hike in to Colchuck Lake intending to climb N Buttress of Dragontail Peak. While Mike wasn't looking Eric hid smallish watermelon in Mike's pack for breakfast in the morning. Made the lake just at twilight. While getting ready for bivy Mike found watermelon, lots of laughs. Up early in the morning and hiked over to start of climb. Scary, slabby, wet looking climb. Couldn't coax anyone to lead first pitch. Group decided to hike up Asgard Pass and truck over to Prusik where friend Howard and SAC group were going to climb W Ridge. Scrambled up W Ridge and met Howard on summit. Visited for awhile and then downclimbed route to Prusik Pass. Decided to hike up Cannon Mountain. Neat plateau with many rock pools. Hiked up to summit great views, had lunch. Looked down, SW?, and could see road and TH. Straight down had to be quicker than back the way we had come so down we go. Nice booted glissade down snow slope. Snow slope narrowed to thin gulley so braked glissade somewhat in order to not shoot off some unseen cliffs after a bit gully widened again to good slope. Finally fun ended and down talus, brush and trees. Several cliffs encountered so couple of rappels then finally to abandoned road and eventually to car. | |

| D Smith | Route Climbed: Via Enchantments and Prusik Pass Date Climbed: August, 1991 | |
| Summited Cannon during a 1-day hike through the Enchantments/Rat Lakes. Route started at Colchuck T.H., ascended Aasgard Pass, then through the upper Enchantments to Prusik Pass to the summit. This time there was a summit register (packed inside a plastic water bottle stuffed between some rocks.) Descended via Shield and Earl Lakes, then mistakenly bushwhacked down the drainage to Nada Lake. (planned route was to descend via Toketie lake, which would have been much more enjoyable.) | |

| Dean | Route Climbed: Came in over Aasgard, to Coney, to Cannon and out Date Climbed: August 1986 | |
| Did a three day solo loop, didn't intend to originally and only had intended to do some 'safe' camping. I got a late start on friday afternoon and ended up camping at Colchuck lake that evening. The next day I went up over Aasgard, down to Rune Lake, over Prussik Pass to Shield's where the skeeters ran me out. Contoured my way over the ridge between Shields and Mesa Lake and found my way over to Coney Lake. Lonely place, rarely visited. Camped there. Next morning went up and out the gully on the southwest side, tagged Cannon and headed down to the south west (not the northwest ridge route). Eventually came out on the trail about a half mile or so from the TH. I'll write a complete trip report on this in the near future as you don't ever want to go out the way I did, especially solo. | |
