| distressbark | Great Cleft Route  Date Climbed: Sep 2, 2009 | |
| gorgeous, breezy day atop the summit. traversed to Bishops Cap after summit of Pollock. returned to Pollock, and rather than climbing back up to the summit, we followed a wide, scree-covered ledge at the base of the cliffs west of the summit block. very easy walk all the way back to saddle between Pollock and Piegan; simple, scenic descent down to Piegan Pass from there. | |

| Beautiful day except for 50 mph winds trying to blow me off the exposed summit. Took the south face cleft, which was a lot of fun, then hopped over to Piegan Mountain before dropping back down to Going to the Sun Road. | |

| Attempted Pollock after summiting Piegan 6 days earlier. The route wasn't easy to find. Fortunately, on my 2nd try I came across a couple of climbers who knew the route. | |

| Interesting route finding excursion! Fun chimney to climb through - definitely takes some flexible muscles and limbs! Helps if you have a small backpack so you don't get hung up. Climbed with Fred , Moni and Vern. Fred - thanks for the great route finding! Couldn't have done it without you! | |

| Saintgrizzly | Route Climbed: Great Cleft Date Climbed: September 1, 2004 | |
| Climbed with Moni & Fred Spicker, and Ellen Ritt. The "Cleft" through the cliffs is fun, and well worth it; summit views are GNP-terrific! Huddled just off the summit through a short thunderstorm--minimum rain (fortunately), but not so minimum lightning not so far away (actually, it was all too close)! Continued on to Bishops Cap, and more glory. All this, on my birthday--The first of two GNP summits in one day: WHADDA PRESENT! | |

| With Fred, Vern Garner and Ellen Ritt. A very fun climb but the route is a little hard to find. Got caught in a thunderstorm on the summit - not so fun. Views of the Logan Pass area from the summit are great. | |
