| km_donovan | Atlantis Couloir Date Climbed: Jun 19, 2009 | |
| Climbed and skied the couloir with SP'ers Gravity Pilot, ripper333 & emilyc. The top 4 inches of wet heavy snow slid as we skied down. | |

| crzyjt | UP: Atlantic Cooly DOWN: Ski of saddle b/w Atlantic/Pacific Date Climbed: Jun 4, 2009 | |
| Climbed Atlantis in good conditions. We started up w/o crampons as the snow was rather soft and punch, even at 8am, but the shaded areas in the couloir were pretty firm, so we found a safe rest spot in the chute to put the crampons on. Skinned from the top of the couloir to the summit and skied off the summit down through the saddle with Pacific. Snow is getting soft early and not completely freezing overnight. | |

| Timothy Pearl | Fun Day Date Climbed: Mar 28, 2009 | |
| Climbed W ridge with MikeyB. Dropped skis and snowshoes at base of ridge. Lots of new snow made for tough plodding, but not horrendous. Above 13k had a bit of bitter wind kicking. Finally got all the summits in this gulch and it was my first sunny/clear day up there. 7hrs. | |

| Woodie Hopper | North ridge Date Climbed: Aug 25, 2008 | |
| Climbed from Pacific, third peak today (Crystal-Pacific-Atlantic) from Mayflower Gulch. Talus slope is gentler than Pacific's. Funny seeing all the people on top of Quandry on a Monday, and hardly anyone else around around these peaks today. I was tempted to descend from the West ridge because I thought I was close enough to the Boston mine to avoid the bad scree, talus and cliffs- boy was I wrong! I guess I just wanted to check it out first-hand ;) The descent sucked and wasn't very safe. Don't be fooled and stick to the West ridge on the way down as long as you can. | |

| castricone7 | Easter Climb | |
| (Almost) complete solitude on a perfect below zero Easter day. Still winter on this peak in April. | |

| The calendar says spring, but mother nature was still talking winter. A little blustery and the views were white in every direction, but a fun snow ridge nonetheless. | |

| big_g | sweet winter ridge Date Climbed: Mar 10, 2008 | |
| It was a long day but worth it. The ridge was very interesting with perfect snow conditions. Some relatively narrow snow ridges and a big wave shaped cornice livened things up. | |

| bernardhohman | Winter West Ridge Date Climbed: Mar 1, 2008 | |
| Great route with a very Alpine feel to it. The 50 mph sustained winds made the trip that much more fun! | |

| thebeave7 | Traverse from Pacific Date Climbed: Sep 1, 2007 | |
| Quick and easy over from Pacific. Made the mistake of trying to drop down a scree/sand gully(South side of the W Ridge) straight to the old mines, BIG MISTAKE. Horridly loose, slippery, ended in 30ft of chossy class 4 down climbing. Just stick to the West ridge on the descent. | |

| seth@LOKI | 3 peaks after 3 x denied Date Climbed: Jul 20, 2007 | |
| I've approached Fletcher 3 times and turned back from a blizzard from Blue Lakes, and thwumping avalanches from the Mayflower Gulch side. This I climbed the rock rib left of the main gulley from Mayflower Gulch. The rocks were slick as snot from perpetual rain the night before. Clouds rolled in and turned me away from Driftwood, but the clouds seemed stable as I descended. I didn't like the rotten Chamonix looking traverse to Atlantic, so I went up the green south wall of Atlantic Peak nad onto Pacific, then a quick visit to the cute little green horn on the way back to Mayflowwer Gulch. I didn't visit the rickety mine high on the south wall, but it looked like a very precarious place to extract a living. | |
