| thatnissanguy | steep snow on NE Ridge Date Climbed: Jun 21, 2010 | |
| Pristine snow climb from the amphitheater to the NE Ridge and glacial conditions in the amphitheater. Great couloirs this time of year. What a magnificent summit! | |

| A few inches of snow fell the night before. A little different from my past experiences on Pyramid. Would've brought the microspikes! | |

| Montana Matt | Intimidatingly loose Date Climbed: Jul 17, 2009 | |
| Got off route a bit on the way up and got into some loose crap. The descent was fine. The view of the Bells from the top is great. Leah was with me which made the climb even better. | |

| Loved the scenery, loved the "leap of faith," loved the ledges. Not too fond of the green strip of death or the kitty-litter covered ledge system higher on the mountain. Also, had a bit of a spooky experience with a mother mountain goat and her kid. She was coming at us with a slightly curious, slightly annoyed expression and an aggressive stance. Not fun on loose Class 3/4 terrain. | |

| Second time summtting, this time from the south. Long day starting at UN 13,631 making for a long traverse. Last 4th class chimney topped off a great day. Still one of my favorite 14ers. With Kiefer. | |

| Finished on Pyramid Peak after an impossibly long and mentally taxing ridge climbing from 13,631...2.15 miles south. South Ridge is complicated, loose as all shit and in my opinion, not recommended. Thank God we had great weather!! | |

| Started up at 5:10AM and reached the summit after some mixed route finding at 9:42AM. Stayed nearly 40 mins on this rewarding summit this fine day and back to the TH at 2:40PM. My 50th 14'er...sweet! | |

| habaceeba | Standard Route Date Climbed: Jul 14, 2010 | |
| It first seems that this is a formidable mountain, but the standard route is well cairned and the majority of the route to the summit is easy to follow. Incredible summit view. | |

| After being shut down on Pyramid a bout 3 weeks before, Tim and I decided to give it another shot. And this time (with no snow) we found success. What a peak! Very challenging! | |

| Joined Eric for his 51st fourteener. Got an early start to beat the predicted thunderstorms and other hazards. Had the mountain to ourselves all day except for one mountain goat on the summit (8:30am). Ascended a bit climbers right which proved a little more tricky, descended easier route. | |

| metal4lyf | unpossible Date Climbed: Jun 21, 2010 | |
| incredible and scary climb. We took a couloir and two large snowfields up to the 13000' saddle. From there we followed the standard route mostly to the summit. A 5.7 pitch or two was our reward for losing the route above the green rock. We descended the standard route where we could find it. Perfect day, awesome partners... | |

| Challenged by route finding but made the summit. Sat on top on a beautiful day and watched a pilot in a glider circle the peak. What it's all about! | |
