| Kiefer Thomas | Via Casco's Ridge  Date Climbed: Sep 26, 2009 | |
| For basically just a lump, Steph and I made this piece of crap as hard as one could make it, not intentionally. Hiked up Lackawanna Gulch, did a lot of traversing and downclimbing the far ridge before we gained the ridge we needed below Casco then remembered we had plans we needed to keep. Scrambled the ridge over to Lackawanna (so as not to waste the day) and bushwhacked the west slope back to the TH. Long day. | |

| shanahan96 | finally! Date Climbed: Feb 20, 2009 | |
| never heard of anyone NOT summiting lackawanna, but it took me four tries in winter to get up this SOB! finally made it by prodding around the gully on the south slopes before cutting over to finish along the south ridge. the postholing and weather were nowhere near as horrible as they've been in the past. that made a big difference. jamie | |

| Snow on the North side, almost none on the South slopes. Nice views. Climbed over UN 13,660B en route. | |

| We climbed Lackawanna from North Lake Creek trailhead. We had recently seen Finding Nemo, so we were calling it Lakawannahawkalugi! | |

| We climbed the Lackawanna Gulch snow route. There was postholing, snow climbing, wind and loose talus. A good time was had. The end. | |

| shknbke | from French/Casco/13660 Date Climbed: Sep 22, 2007 | |
| I must say I am glad I didn't go up the south slopes! Combined Lackawanna with the French group via a car shuttle. Descended directly down the south ridge to our car and got into some nasty bushwacking. We probably should have countoured s.w. into the avy gully. | |

| Climbed the NW ridge route via Lackawanna gulch. Enjoyed the snow climb on stable snow at the head of the little-traveled basin. Had a great climb and experienced my first ever Ptarmagin attack, guess I was close to a nest! | |

| Great outing with Brad Snider. The weather prevented us from seeing alot but what we did see was spectacular. Perhaps the longest 1.6 miles I've ever been on. | |

| Brad Snider | Route Climbed: South Slopes Date Climbed: May 7, 2005 | |
| Fun, cloudy/snowy/windy day with miztflip. Steep and sometimes slippery slope with fresh 2"+ layer of snow. Lots of avalanche debris in the gulch. No summit view today, but definitely a good workout for the legs and lungs--don't be fooled by the short distance! | |

| This was one STEEP climb. I left my capilene shirt on a lower shoulder so if you find it, enjoy! Good weather, good conditions. Good early season climb as well | |

| My plan that weekend was to attempt Ice Mountain but the weather ended up a bit unstable. So I went for an easier hike on "Lackawanna Peak" that went really well. Easy access and pristine alpine tundra made this mountain a lot of fun. | |
