| hiked up this afternoon, got lost on the way up - didn't realize you need to STAY ON THE DIRT ROAD! THE ROAD IS THE TRAIL!!! I ended up bushwhacking the hell out of that mountainside. Got on the trail, got up to the pass where the telephone pole and that shallow cave is, for some reason thought that was superior so i was disappointed when i came around and saw the real superior. Got up to Superior and then was disappointed to see that Monte Cristo was taller; I assumed it was shorter. Once on top of Monte Cristo my disappointments were gone, I was stoked to be up there, it was a beautiful day with huge billowy (yet non-stormy) clouds and awesome fall leaves. about 3 hours up to the top. about 2 hours down. | |

| Wasatchvoyage | Excellent scramble! Date Climbed: Jun 10, 1992 | |
| Ascended this route to gain the Cottonwood Ridge beyond in 1992. Returned in the fall of 1993 to ascend Superior and Monte Cristo. The scrambling on the upper section was excellent, great friction. | |

| vanman798 | Made it to the pass Date Climbed: Oct 20, 2007 | |
| Started hiking at 8:45 am, Saturday Oct 20, 2007. At Alta there was about 6 inches of snow on the road leading up to Cardiff pass. By 10:00am it started snowing, and the wind was blowing. Once we got up to the saddle, it was really coming down and blowing hard, the drifts on the north side were at times waist deep. Without snow shoes, we decided to turn around at the hut by the antenna. It was great to be in a snow storm this early in the season, even though we didn't get to summit Superior! Used this route again on May 16, 2008 to climb Superior and Monte Cristo. This time we bagged both peaks, then skied down the SE face of Superior. | |
