| distressbark | Great Break Route  Date Climbed: Jul 29, 2009 | |
| great route, fantastic summit views. was surprised at how much easier the climb up the great break was - lots of great handholds the entire way. descended into the large basin north of the summit towards Lake Josephine; stay above the treeline and head north towards the Many Glacier Hotel for as long as possible! i headed down far too early and found myself climbing down near waterfalls and bushwhacking through alder thickets. | |

| This was a LONG day. Started by hiking to Cracker Lake, and then ascended the long, and tiring, scree slopes to the summit. Views were incredible, and I hated to leave but storm clouds said otherwise. I decided to "shortcut" the descent by going down the north side, towards Josephine Lake. I did make good time until I hit treeline and then the nightmare began. The next mile was endless downfalls and brush that took about two hours to pick my way through. When I came out on the trail leading to Piegan Pass, I was one happy camper. All in all, this was a memorable traverse of this huge mountain. Try it for a different experience. | |

| Excellent morning trip from Cracker Lake to the summit. The spectacular views and solitude (not another person up on the peak) combined to make a memorable day in Glacier. | |

| Climbed this one with the GMS. What wonderful folks! We just LOVED this mountain! What an awesome view! The route was great fun. Lots of scrambling and beautiful views along the way. Be ready for some bushwhacking as well. This is one of the most amazing summits I have ever been on, and I highly recommend this mountain to any Glacier enthusiast. Climbing with someone who has done it before will expedite your day. | |
