| forjan | Brrrrr.....cold! Date Climbed: Dec 1, 2007 | |
| My friend Luis and I climbed the left couloir while Pavel and Misha were getting on the right couloir. It snowed lightly all day and it was butt cold: temperatures hovered anywhere from single digits to lower teens. However, the ice was pretty nice. We got a late start. Started the first pitch at 11:30am. We skipped the summit (short daylight, blowing snowing in your eyes and cold drove us out) as we topped out just before 3pm. | |

| Nice day out with Karen, we took advantage of the warm weather and the fact 120 was still open. A long approach with a little climbing :) | |

| rhyang | Soloed on neve Date Climbed: Sep 30, 2006 | |
| Soloed left couloir on good neve, to about 45-ish degrees. Two sections in the upper part were melted out - these seemed about third class. Slogged on sand up from left couloir exit to summit scramble and took the class 3 easy way up to the southwest face. On top by 9:15am. | |

| Deb | Totally Jazzed! Date Climbed: Oct 27, 2007 | |
| Chief and I climbed the first two pitches and I was totally jazzed to lead the second. Would love to have a go at it again next year and see the top of this thing. Thanks for your patience and motivation Chief! | |

| The Chief | What a Fun climb! Date Climbed: Aug 22, 1993 | |
| From the first time I experienced this great quiet yet very accessible 700' Sierra Couloir climb in '93, I have had nothing but postive vibes and memories on it. You can always find it empty as the line gets longer over on the Right Couloir. Lot's of fun, steeper and can avail one to a potentially stiffer challenge when "IN" than the popular Right Couloir. Great route to take a first time Ice Climber and it avails great pro for them to take their first lead on the pointy end of the rope. | |

| asmrz | Very good climb Date Climbed: Sep 5, 2002 | |
| Over Labor Day in 2002, Michael Gordon and I made a fast (for us)7 hours RT from Saddleback Lake to climb this (very nice) Couloir. The conditions were just right, so we didn't use rope, but the summit scramble from the Couloir's Notch to the North Peak's summit proved a bit harder with a fresh snow covering the rock. Good climb with a competent partner. | |
