| Much different from the old pearly gates route! The little exposed summit ridge is a bit fun too. Got hit with quite a bit of ice fall the two times I did this route this year. | |

| We couldn't have asked for better weather. Dodging dislodged rock was great fun. Spent nearly an hour on the summit and summit ridge- just after sunrise. | |

| Great climb with my friend up the Old Chute. A little crowded but not too bad. | |

| TetonLove | Loved the Exposure Date Climbed: Nov 13, 2004 | |
| Bluebird day. Gorgeous moment when the mountain cast a hundred mile triangle into the pacific ocean. Able to see Rainier, Sisters, and Adams from summit. | |

| NCclimber | Great primer on glacier climbs Date Climbed: Jun 9, 2007 | |
| The weather gave us a short window, just enough to let us reach the summit. Great climb. | |

| BCJ | Pelted by ice Date Climbed: Jun 12, 2008 | |
| Soloed the route from the top of Palmer after my partner led the guy we were guiding back down from there (he was from the Philippines and had never touched snow before). Lots of falling ice on the route once it traversed to the Old Chute from the Hogsback. I took a softball-size chunk off my helmet. | |

| lneher | Old Chute fumarole route Date Climbed: Jun 30, 2008 | |
| We climbed through the fumaroles to avoid ice falling across the standard traverse on a warm day. | |

| bgratias | Would good with good weather Date Climbed: Feb 14, 2008 | |
| Made it to the top despite being seriously socked in. I'm definitely going to do it again with good weather. | ||

| Redwic | Much More Than Expected Date Climbed: Apr 26, 2008 | |
| The weather was perfect and the fumaroles were potent. The trek seemed much longer than anticipated. Once the sun came out, the snow softened up rather quickly. Beautiful scenery and many good conversations with other travelers. Then went back solo on June 15, to give my dad a special "Fathers Day" message from the summit. | |

| Karl Helser | Perfect Weather... Date Climbed: Feb 17, 2008 | |
| Early season conditions. The weather was perfect! Chunky loose ice from Palmer to Crater Rock turning to the soft stuff all the way to nearly the summit. The hogsback is way left again this year. The Pearly Gate chutes look technical and slow, so I think the Old Chute Variation will be the standard south side route for a while. We didn't use a rope, but I could have used a second tool. | |

| WoundedKnee | The catwalk was fun! Date Climbed: Jun 9, 2007 | |
| The schrund was already opened by early June, so we took the Old Chute | |

| burningthebushes | F*** the berg, go left Date Climbed: Jul 2, 2007 | |
| With the bergschrund wide open and everyone else going to the old chute I had to follow. Summitted in 3:15 from Timberline less than 24hrs after Mt. Adams summit | |

| pingzingr | Enjoyable route Date Climbed: Apr 5, 2007 | |
| Great route and day with Ben from Timberline Mountain Guides and my father. Took the 4 am snowcat to the top of Palmer lift and then started out. Amazing early morning views under an almost full moon. Sun came out and stayed for the duration of the day. Route was fine with moving up about Crater Rock and to the summit plateau. Pearly Gates looked rather sketchy though from the Hogsback. Two other climbers moved up the Hogsback to do the Pearly Gates then ended up backtracking and moving up the Old Chute variation instead. | |
