| Liba Kopeckova | Lovely hike | |
| Lovely hike with Duchess - we started with Democrat and all peaks were easy to be bagged together. Slept in a car at Kite's Lake. | |

| I had been putting this one off as a walk in the park compared to other challenges in the state. But it turned out to be an unusually aesthetic cirque hike. I wish in particular I had brought a frisbee to toss on the summit of Mount Cameron. Much time over 14,000 feet. | |

| Climbed all 4 summits. Overall easy climbs except the fact I got sick. There all very fun! And did I say 4 summits over 14,000 ft.? | |

| Got about an inch of snow during the night before we climbed, which was the first time I think I've ever seen snow in August. I actually saw one dude in shorts, poor guy. | |

| Pete Castricone | Very Windy Date Climbed: Sep 16, 2006 | |
| Arduous ascent up Democrat, but the rest is rather smooth. The ridge was nothing but bitter wind. I smeared my cheeks with chapstick! I was wearing trailrunning shoes, so I "ran" from Lincoln to Bross. I won't do that again anytime soon. | |

| seth@LOKI | Decacrat Range...? | |
| You could do four summits with Sherman on a good day, or weekend. I've always thought it funny this range enchains Arkansas, Democrat, and Clinton Peaks...Doesn't it? | |

| My coworker Jay and I were super-psyched about this climb. We started out later than we planned. I forget the exact time we got out of the car, but it wasn't too long before sunrise. The hike to Democrat gets you some vertical mileage QUICKLY. Though de-spirited by numerous false summits on Democrat, we hiked on and gained the summit. We didn't stay for too long, continuing on to Cameron, we we paused for a few seconds before making the trek to Lincoln. The approach to Lincoln is fantastic. The terrain is very surreal, inspiring visions of what it must be like to hike on the surface of Mars or the Moon. The summit ridge to Lincoln is winding and scenic. We gained the summit and ate lunch, taking in views of the other mountains around us, including Quandary. We then descended and skirted the side of Cameron on the way to Bross. This looked easy, but was steeper than we first thought. It soon became apparent that this would be an indurance contest. We labored to the summit, or what we thought was the summit. It's fairly flat up there, and we walked around to several places we thought might be the high point. Not sure which one it was... It started to cloud up, so we made a quick descent back to the car. The entire drive back, Jay and I thought about some of our other coworkers who had planned to do Long's that day. "So you climbed a 14er today?" we'd say. "Yeah," they'd respond. "How many did we do today?" I'd ask Jay. "Oh, that's right.. We did four." | |
