| jacobsmith | Good Moderate  Date Climbed: Jun 15, 2013 | |
| Climbed w/ Ryan and Chandler, they let me link up the first two pitches with a short 5.8ish variation between them and then Chandler led the next pitch and we soloed to the summit. Definitely the best easy alpine climb i've done. | |

| Did this route over 25 years ago - no crowds back then :-) Only one rap station back then and it took two 50m ropes. Great climb and I do remember all the goats! | |

| pilot4life | Fabulous! Date Climbed: Aug 7, 2011 | |
| There are some errors in the description. The lengths are all too short by ~40 feet. Also I found the hole near the boulder move on pitch four is a brownie sized 1.5 tri-cam. We free soloed that pitch on the way down to the rap chains, that slab feels like 5.3 going up if you are tall enough and 5.8 going down. Also be warned that wearing a pack on pitch two stinks. | |

| Pretty cruiser route. Hit in on a weekday to hopefully avoid the crowds. | |

| There were as many goats on the route as there were climbers! | |

| kpthomson | Loved the 200 foot rap | |
| Climbed the Becky Route after the SW Spire. A majestic place, cant imagine Becky hiking in way back when. Now we have to "highway". | |

| MichaelJ | Two peaks in two hours Date Climbed: Aug 18, 2008 | |
| Wandered up the wrong gully and soloed up Lexington to figure out where I was. Saw a party climbing something on the next peak that turned out to be the Beckey Route. Slogged down one gully and up another just as the other party was coming down. Took about 20 minutes to climb the route. First half was pretty good; second so-so but the views were great and it was nice to have the peak to myself. | |

| MountaingirlBC | nice short approach | |
| Great day out. Had the route to ourselves until later in the day. Very friendly goats. Wish it had been longer. Easy for its grade. Getting back down the gully on the way out was harder! Nice destination when its wet on the coast. | |

| nasak | My first alpine route! Date Climbed: Sep 9, 2006 | |
| It was nice and quiet when we went up after labor day. The area was smokey due to the local forest fires. A fun climb! | |
