| Larry V | via Lawn Lake  Date Climbed: Aug 22, 2009 | |
| Ron and I set up camp at Lawn Lake and then proceeded to summit Fairchild Mountain. The weather continued to be dry and beautiful all afternoon and evening for our climb. Unusually warm night at the 11,000' lake. Woke up to 55F temperatures. | |

| Peak 4 of 8, did a variation of "Mummy Mania" we dubbed "Mummy Masochism" because we tacked 2 bushwhack 11ers on to the end. Appx 19 miles, 7000 vertical - climbed Chapin, Chiquita, Ypsilon, Fairchild, Hagues, Mummy, Tileston and Bighorn. This was my 200th unique ranked 13er in Colorado. | |

| From Yspilon, went down then climbed straight up it. Pretty exhausting but opted for this instead of the ridge for some reason. | |

| Hiked all three peaks in a day after a camp at the Lawn Lake backcountry campsite. I was surprised at how broad and flat the summit of Fairchild was. It was a nice place to hang out before the threatening clouds moved in. The Crystal Lakes provided a nice side trip on the way back to camp. | |

| argothor | From the Saddle Date Climbed: Jul 12, 2008 | |
| Camped at Lawn Lake and hiked up via the Saddle. Still a couple of snow fields on the northeast slopes. Cool and windy at the summit. Returned via the northeast slope route as described by Lisa Foster. Made a side trip to the lovely Crystal Lakes on the way back to camp. | |

| Started a little late, fourth summit of Mummy Mania. We only got 5 done as a nasty storm chased us off Hagues at the last minute. | |

| markhyams | from Ypsilon Date Climbed: Jul 22, 2006 | |
| Fourth peak of the Mummy Mania tour. It is very reasonable to keep the traverse from Ypsilon at Class 2, but there is a TON of boulder hopping. The highlight was looking at Desolation Peaks and the Hagues Creek drainage. | |

| We were going to climb Fairchild and Hagues. We summited Fairchild and made it back to the saddle at the time the dark clouds we saw forming to the west moved in. We high-tailed it back down, but not without getting drenched. | |

| Climbed Fairchild as part of the Mummy Mania traverse and it was probably the hardest peak as the snowfields and talus were annoying. | |
