| Fred Spicker | East Ledge & Scramble  Date Climbed: Sep 4, 2009 | |
| With Vernon - a very fun scramble from the ledge to ridge top. Note - We used the ledge shown in THIS PHOTO by FlatheadNative, not the one shown on the main page. This ledge is also marked by cairns and was marked with flagging. The trail on this ledge leads to a spot on the first large couloir that can be easily crossed and does not match the description in Edwards. | |

| saintgrizzly | Standard (East Ledge) Route Date Climbed: Sep 4, 2009 | |
| Unexpectedly pleasant mountain—much nicer summit than I had anticipated (that's not the mountain's fault, but my sometimes idiotic preconception of things)! Followed the goat trail along the east face, then did the very-nice-and-fun cliff ascent beginning immediately prior to reaching the first couloir (the description of which is one instance where the Edwards' book gets it wrong). Windy and cold on top with spitting rain meant we had to touch the summit and flee, though, as a line of squalls was coming our way; too bad, because an hour or so later the weather would have been fine! Nice views of Gunsight Mountain, Sperry Glacier, and the glaciers around Blackfoot Mountain and Mount Jackson. And also nice views of...(well okay, that sort of thing's a given in this area). Climbed with Fred Spicker; as usual, a very nice outing! | |
