| MoapaPk | 4 times, 3 routes Date Climbed: Aug 4, 2002 | |
| Today (May 13,2007) I took a variation of CP's northern route. Much nicer and more alpine, more challenge, compared to the normal Harris Springs slog. Then went out over Griffith and ran back to car parked at visitor's center. Made for a 12.3 mile day with 5100' accumulated elevation gain. For 2002, this was the 3rd out of five 10k+ peaks designed to test my returning balance. | |

| LV Hiker | Via Harris Srings Trailhead Date Climbed: May 31, 2006 | |
| I hiked this one with a few friends of mine. We started off at the Harris Springs Trailhead. When we got to the Harris Saddle we took off cross country and headed for the peak. the last 500 feet or so the the top was very loose slippery rock. That was probably the hardest part of the entire hike....other then it was a bit warm on the exposed road to the saddle. | |

| Followed Jim Boones suggested route loop that was 5.25 miles. His information was right on every time. I had my GPS with me. http://www.birdandhike.com/Hike/Mt_Char/Harris_Mtn/Harris_Mtn.htm | |

| Day Hiker | Route Climbed: Griffith Peak Trail Date Climbed: 12 December 2004 | |
| On the road to the Griffith Peak trailhead from Harris Springs Road, I parked the car about 1.5 miles below the trailhead due to deep snow on the road. I snowshoed 3 miles up to a point about 1.5 miles above the trailhead, where the trail turns west and passes a chute (elev ~8850ft) on the southwest side of Harris Mountain. I took off my snowshoes and headed up the chute and the southwest slope. The southwest slope was snow-free until I got within 400 vertical feet from the summit. There was at least 3 feet of snow on the summit. | |

| cp0915 | Route Climbed: NR (winter 03/04) & NR Direct (winter 04/05) Date Climbed: summited winter 03/04 | |
| Nice routes. Solo'd the NR. The NR Direct definitely steps the endeavor up a notch. SP's esugi and I did the Direct for fun and for practice/training purposes with no real attempt at the summit. Frankly, the snow got so deep and powdery on the upper ridge that we gladly decided to stop there, simulate some steep snow and glacier travel situations, before heading back down. Good times. | |
