shknbkeTen Mile Traverse  Sucess!
Date Climbed: Sep 19, 2009

This was my last peak as part of the Ten Mile traverse as I had already done Peak 10. Sweet traverse with a nice contrast between exposed scrambling and a gentle stroll.

kavakWest Slopes via Wheeler Trail  Sucess!
Date Climbed: Aug 16, 2002

I like this approach because you really don't feel like you are climbing through a ski area. After summitting I headed down the north ridge toward Peak 8.

SarahThompsonCelebration Hike!  Sucess!
Date Climbed: Aug 25, 2007

A very social hike with a large group - we celebrated on top of Peak 9 because it was the FINAL Colorado 13er for one of us. Continued on to Peak 8 before heading back to the TH for more celebration.

DharmaBum1984Tenmile Traverse  Sucess!
Date Climbed: Sep 1, 2007

Summited around 1 p.m. as part of the Tenmile Traverse. Weather was deteriorating, so I spent about 30 seconds on the summit.

Also climbed 9/27/08 from Crystal and Peak 10. Picked our way down Peak 10's loose north ridge, then up the ridgeline to the summit of 9.

GahugafugaEast Ridge via Breck  Sucess!
Date Climbed: Mar 6, 2007

Skied up this peak from the Beaver Run resort on a quiet weekeday. Took me just over 3 hours from the base to the peak - one of my sturdier skinning efforts. Descended into the Windows via the NE face of the peak on pretty much bulletproof slab. I'm glad I learned to ski on the east coast!

ChrisTenmile Traverse  Sucess!
Date Climbed: Jul 29, 2006

Part of the Tenmile Traverse... what a long but fun day! Mount Royal through Peak 10. 16.5 miles, 8100' gain, 15 hours.

This one was my mental crux... dropping off Peak 8 was demoralizing.

By this point on the Tenmile Traverse, my legs were mush. I don't think I remember much from Peaks 8-10.... Man that was a good hike.

miztflipRoute Climbed: South Ridge from Peak 10 Date Climbed: 5 September, 2005  Sucess!

I started the morning by climbing Father Dyers Class 3 Northeast Ridge. From there I traversed over Crystal and Peak 10 before climbing Peak 9's South Ridge. I returned to the Spruce Creek TH via the Wheeler Trail.



It made for an exciting tour of the area.

ColoradoScottRoute Climbed: South Ridge from Peak 10 Date Climbed: June 23, 2002  Sucess!

After summiting Peak 10 by it's East Ridge route, rather than descending by the road to the large meadow between the peaks, I scrambled down 10' North ridge until I found the prominant snowfield along the Northeast Face (conditions of this are visible from Breckenridge). A steep glissade and I dropped 500 feet, before reaching the boulders at the snowfield's base. Then I traversed back toward the sadlle and easily ascended Peak 9. The descent was to the Southeast, intersecting the excellent Wheeler Trail. It would be easy to continue north from Peak 9 to Peak 8 for those desiring amother summit.

Climbed and skied this great peak several times. It's a really nice, mellow ski. Access via the ski resort is great.
