| Linked from Elephants Back via East Ridge. Skied down to the car (with some hateful yo-yoing). Climbed with Scott, Rathburn, Vitaly, Pellucid Wombat and... Damn, I'm no good with names. | |

| Bill Kish | CMC Date Climbed: Mar 20, 2010 | |
| Perfect snow conditions in the right fork of the CMC. The final step to the east summit was harder icy rock. | |

| PellucidWombat | Beginner Backpack Trip Date Climbed: Sep 17, 2009 | |
| I was leading a beginner backpacking trip for CHAOS to the area. Deeper snows than expected dashed our original plans, but the W Ridge route was just clear enough to be a good scramble despite the snow and tennis shoes! | |

| wyopeakMike | Round Top rules | |
| I loved the hike up Round Top from Carson Pass. In the early 90's when I lived in the area, I loved the times I hiked up this peak. The views of the lakes below were sublime. I really have fond memories of the Carson Pass area. | |

| A-Lex | West Ridge | |
| This was a ski/climb trip. Climbed up to the shoulder to the west of round top, skirted towards the backside of the mountain, and climbed up to the summit. Easy climbing, great conditions in winter, and way fun! | |

| Hiked the trail? most of the way with Dean. Still lots of snow covering the trail. The scramble to the top was a little challenging. | |

| Deb | Crescent Moon Couloir (right fork) Date Climbed: Apr 20, 2009 | |
| Sick with nerves and second guessing an attempt on Crescent Moon Couloir, I still wasn't 100% decided on whether to do the thing while standing at the base of it. After everyone's tales and recommendations making the exit sound horrifying (in MY mind) and not so tasty for a soloist, I half made up my mind to go West Ridge. Somehow, without really thinking any further, I donned crampons and began stomping up the couloir.....37 minutes later I was up the exit and wondering where all this spicey, dicey exit shit was supposed to be. ? Steep, yes, but nothing that made me say "Yikes!" Scrambled to summit; hardest part of the trip was down-climbing that crap in boots but it was fun. Loved every minute of it except following those stupid blue markers in the woods and getting lost on the way back too.......WAAAY to hot to be goofing around extra miles out there. Oh yeah, hit up The Sisters too. :) | |

| mthomas | My first alpine climb and backcountry ski trip Date Climbed: Nov 12, 2001 | |
| My first trip on backcountry skis, from Carsons pass to just below the rocky summit, then a scramble to the top, which felt a lot more than a scramble to me at the time. Trip was with Doug Robinson | |

| selinunte01 | Stormy but sunny day Date Climbed: Aug 31, 2008 | |
| Beautiful dayhike from Woods lake to Round Top Lake and summit, descent via Winnemucca Lake. Perfect sunny day, great views. Very strong winds at the summit ridge, it was difficult to stay upright. | |
