| shanahan96 | southwest ridge  Date Climbed: Aug 29, 2009 | |
| climbed up the fun, southwest ridge scramble with mike. stuck to the ridge proper most of the way and tackled a bunch of fourth/low fifth-class stuff. nothing took too much time and it was a really fun ascent! the descent wasn't as enjoyable as mike went gimpy after slipping on a sizeable rock. moving a little slower we carefully made our way down the remaining scree fields before cruising the trail back to camp. jamie | |

| Climbed the SW Ridge route with Jamie, the ridge has some loose stuff, but its mostly solid where you are scrambling. The south face, however, is another story. It was loose and not an enjoyable route, had a rock come out from under me and slammed my thigh into another pointy one. Limped out okay, but was really sore. Rain and my bum leg canceled Siberia Peak the next day, but we went up the 11er Arkansas Mtn that was next to our camp site. | |

| The sw ridge was a surprisingly solid and fun scramble. Highly recommended to the loose south face. Traversed over to Snowmass Peak, which was sketchy and loose. | |

| From camp at Geneva Lake, climbed S-Ridge on Snowmass and traversed the ridge to Hagerman with zero beta. Brought a rope & small amount of pro. Crux was short, crazily exposed 5.3ish step. Other than that it was 3rd & 4th class. Some of the huge rocks are very loose and dangerous. Our party of three had one very close call. This ia a serious route, be cautious. | |

| Backpacked into Geneva lake for a 2 night stay after the long drive from Colorado Springs. We left camp about 6AM and we soon parted as the group was headed to Snowmass mountain while I was headed to Hagerman via the SW ridge. Summited about 11AM after seeing the rest of the group silhouetted on the S-ridge route several times during the climb. I stayed close to the ridge crest for the entire route. Descended the South face route and got back to camp about 3PM. | |

| SW Ridge was a lot of fun. Awesome scenery: best I've seen in Colorado so far! Turned out to be a beautiful (but long) day. Trip Report Here | |

| Second attempt. Climbed it with my brother, Ron. I may write up a trip report later. The panoramic views of the Elks are nothing short of spectacular! | |
