| mountaingazelle | Ptarmigan Date Climbed: Sep 1, 2012 | |
| We did a traverse of Flattop, Ptarmigan Point, Notchtop, Knobtop, and Gabletop. We started from Bear Lake and descended through Tourmaline Gorge to Odessa Lake and then to Fern Lake trailhead. | |

| Pete Castricone | This is a named peak? Date Climbed: Aug 20, 2012 | |
| This is an example of naming anything that looks like a pile of rocks...cuz that's what it is...a small pile of rocks. | |

| Guided Chicago buddy of mine up Flattop. He was utterly wasted, so I had to settle on a quick jog over to this point for some privacy and to burn off some steam. Always love this area. Great photos of the Notchtop and Helene from the back side. | |

| jczog | Add-On with Privacy Date Climbed: Aug 10, 2010 | |
| Added this to Flattop and Hallet on a sunny, rain-free day. Lots of wind, but Ptarmigan provided a good sanctuary, wonderful views of the lakes below, and lots of alpine privacy. | |

| tomlauren | Flattop - Ptarmigan Pt - Hallett - Otis Date Climbed: Sep 26, 2009 | |
| From Bear Lake, hiked up Flattop Mtn, Ptarmigan Pt, Hallett Pk, and Otis Pk, descending Andrews Glacier. The wind was freezing and relentless for the 3+ hours that I was on the Continental Divide. That sort of thing doesn't bother me, though. Bring it on! | |

| PellucidWombat | Nice Easy Peak Date Climbed: Aug 28, 2009 | |
| Hiked from TH to summit via the standard trail over Flat Top's summit (1:30 hrs). Couldn't tell where Flat Top's summit actually was, so I cut off from the trail junction to climb Hallet (2-2:30), and then back across the plateau to climb Ptarmigan Pt via up and down the fun cl. 3 bump on its W slopes (3:00) before descending, with a RT time of 4:20 hrs. Nice trail! | |

| KAmmerman | Just me and three Bighorn Sheep Date Climbed: Jul 13, 2008 | |
| A quick hike from Ptarmigan Pass to the top, where three bighorn sheep peered over at me before running away. Great views of Hallet and Otis from the top. | ||

| Arthur Digbee | nice day on the tundra | |
| Hit Ptarmigan along with other peaks north of Flattop one fine July morning. Nice day among the marmots. | |

| Decided to grab Ptarmigan after "flattening" out of Flattop. I had fun marveling at the drop offs and the snow. Oh yeah, granite will indeed bite you! | |

| I caught Ptarmigan after ascending Tyndall Glacier to Flattop. It was a beautiful day with an elk herd on top of the Divide. Looks like some alpine bouldering fun could be had on the way up to Ptarmigan. | |

| Skirted over this to get a better view of Cracktop from the flats. God-awfully hot day despite all the snow. One of the few times I wished there was wind! | |

| I'd hiked by this point a couple of times, but since I was working on climbing all of the named summits in Rocky Mountain National Park I went back to make it official. | |
