| dakotaconcrete | Snow Pass Route Date Climbed: Sep 12, 2009 | |
| I suppose it was appropriate that snow prevented our summitting snow peak. Rob and I attempted to summit via snow pass from Gore Creek trailhead...upon our arrival at the pass a strong snow storm moved in making a bid for the summit questionable. We opted to head back down and try again another day. All in all, its a fantastic looking mountain and I look forward to coming back! | |

| Approach via Deluge Lake Trail. 3rd class SW Ridge to summit with plenty of snow. Traverse to Valhalla. An awesome spring day in the Gores. | |

| Headed up the Southwest Ridge and then down the Snow Pass Route. The south ridge is definitely more difficult, several 3rd class towers with some option 4th class moves. A few of the early towers could be bypassed, but where is the fun in that? Also made a side trip to a sub summit between Hail and Valhalla. I don't think it has a nickname, but somehow "Sleet" seems appropriate as its between "Snow" and "Hail". Great views of "Snow" from this vantage point. | |

| Classic Gore Range. It looks so much gnarlier than it actually is from Deluge Lake. You could make it up and back at no harder than class 2 if careful. | |

| Beautiful Mountain in a very nice setting. Deluge Lake is a nice place to watch the sun go down. | |

| 01aCRViper | fun attempt Date Climbed: Aug 17, 2006 | |
| Decided to attempt a summit run from the Gore Lake basin. Made it to within 150 feet of the summit on the south western ridge when a gap that was just a little too wide to jump with no way around turned this attempt back. | |

| Beautiful short trip in the Gores - quickly becoming my favorite close-to-home range. From Deluge Lake, with my friends Scott and Karyn. | |

| I climbed Snow Peak after I climbed Mt. Valhalla. I was a little concerned at the snow high on the mountain, but as it turned out, I only had to take maybe four steps in it. What a cool peak! It looks pretty wicked from certain vantage points, but it isn’t very hard to climb at all, and the route is fun. On the way back down, I decided to climb PT 12,835 from the saddle. | |

| A good one. Nice scramble on the ridge. In the haste to get going on this unscheduled climb I left my food on the floor of the cabin in the basin and came back to see signs that we weren't alone up there. I curse the varmit that got into my grub! | |

| One of my favorite mountains now... I ascended Snow Peak with colonelpyat, Kane, and my dog Sopris. A very fun climb on a beautiful afternoon. We were on the summit around 4pm. I can't say enough good things about this mountain. | |
