| brianoelberg | Gorge to Barb traverse  Date Climbed: Aug 30, 2012 | |
| Climbed via north face from south Gorge Lake, per description on main Tweedy page of this website...loose bouldery scree at the top is sketchy and easily avoided by going up the northeast ramp: after two hundred yards on the unmarked but cairned/blazed trail to south Gorge Lake, heading south up the mountain after about two hundred yards on the trail to the lake...if you get to the lake you've gone too far. There is no loose scree climbing the northeast ramp. Sweet soft sandy descent to Barb Lake and a swim on a sandy beach. Then the bushwack out...trail is mostly cairned but easy to miss trail and goes up and down and sucks. | |

| abarnhart | Barb to Gorge Route Date Climbed: Jun 16, 2012 | |
| Came in through the Barb side and ascended the snow slope. Saw a mountain goat at 11,000ft. Signed the log and then went down a very steep and questionable route to Upper Gorge lake. | |

| bakcast | Snowy september Date Climbed: Sep 7, 2008 | |
| Climbed via Gorge Lakes and North slopes. 6-8 inches of snow on N. face made scrambling not so fun. Cold and wet. Will return as Gorge lakes are an incredible and easily accessible spot. | |

| gato | North Ridge Date Climbed: Jun 24, 2007 | |
| Bluebird June days are simply too nice. A good moderate climb with fun scrambling after the technical pitches, hungry trout, and nice camping contributed to the overall excellence of that weekend. | |

| Second time up the North Ridge rock route, first on the summit. The ridge above is interesting scrambling. Beautiful weekend in the mountains, unless you were a trout! | |

| Some lovely bushwhacking to contend with. Ripped the bear spray right out of my holster. Never did find it. However, a really fun summit to sit on and peruse the surrounding countryside. | |
