I lead a Sierra Club trip over Piute Pass to climb the peak from Humphreys Basin. A very enjoyable outing.

copegFrom Desolation lake  Sucess!

Took the easy way up from Desolation Lake. The only hard part was a little bushwacking a little ways above the lake. High winds on the top forced us down early, but the views were amazing.

Date Climbed: Aug 19, 2007

From a high camp at L Lake, crossed Steelhead Pass to access the south slope. Very windy up high. Found the correct summit on only my second attempt of several high spots. Nice view over to Mt. Tom.

Bob BurdRoute Climbed: South Slpoes (ascent) / East Ridge (descent) Date Climbed: Aug 3, 2004  Sucess!

This was a really fun scramble along several miles of ridgeline between Basin Mtn and Four Gables, up to class 4 in a few places. A quite enjoyable day. Trip Report

ClydascopeRoute Climbed: Northeast Face Date Climbed: July 20, 1996  Sucess!

We climbed a class 3-4 line to the right of the Northeast Buttress. It was rather crumbly and steep, not real good. After that we proceeded to visit the 3 other remaining summits, then down the South Ridge.

Matthew HollimanRoute Climbed: South Ridge/Slopes Date Climbed: July 5, 2004  Sucess!

Four Gables-Pilot Knob dayhike out of North Lake--a long and thoroughly enjoyable tour of Humphreys Basin. Climbed Peak 12,801 by mistake before following the South Ridge to the lower named point and the summit register. (I'm not the only one to make this mistake--the summit register spent several years on Peak 12,801 before being relocated recently).



Views are better from Peak 12,801 than Four Gables, and it's a nice scramble along the ridge too, so I don't regret the mistake...

PellucidWombatRoute Climbed: South Ridge, descended East Ridge Date Climbed: August 3rd, 2004  Sucess!

An easy stroll from South Basin Mountain. The East Ridge could be an enjoyable route to climb up with some snow cover. I still don't understand why the official summit with the register is lower than two other nearby points that are higher. Also, from the valley it only looks like one gable - the rest of the ridge just rolls like a wave. Go figure :-)
