| Athos791 | Third 14er Date Climbed: Jul 12, 2008 | |
| Ascended Uncompahgre via the Nellie Creek trailhead for our third 14er of our week long trip to the San Juans. Very enjoyable hike, the crux of the climb before the summit platteau was very enjoyable, i would say stick to the right at this portion. There is more solid rock to be found. | |

| Climbed Uncompahgre, Handies, and Wetterhorn on consecutive days from our Silver Spur Motel "base camp" in Lake City. The San Juans are amazing! Recommend high clearance 4wd for Nellie Creek Trailhead. | |

| taw6644 | Favorite Hike to date Date Climbed: Jul 28, 2008 | |
| Man, what an awsome day. With only 3,000 gain, this had to be one of the easiest hikes and defenitely the most beautiful. I was the first one to summit, and had the place to myself for about 20 minutes. It was very enlightening. | |

| rleclair | Blue Bird Day on Uncompahgre Date Climbed: Jul 19, 2008 | |
| Made the long trek from Denver to hike Uncompahgre with good friends Alan, Patrick and Patrick's son JP. The Nellie Creek 4 WD "road" to the TH was "fun" and we camped out at the trailhead for a reasonable start time to the Uncompahgre summit. Incredible views, weather - the San Juan's are a special place! | |

| myrone | Uncompahgre Peak from Nellie Creek TH Date Climbed: Jul 12, 2008 | |
| Started up at 6:10AM and reached the summit at 8:37. Ideal weather conditions though a bit hazy from the Grand Mesa forest fires. Met two nice older gentleman who had each climbed all the 14'ers, very interesting. Left the summit at 9:07 and back to the TH at 11:02. Another beautiful Colorado morning and my 40th 14'er..............sweet! | |

| Mots010 | Ski descent of Southeast Face Date Climbed: Apr 26, 2008 | |
| Well, not from the summit. We skied from the shoulder at 13,900 all the way to the car(with a few dry spots). I was able to skin up to about 13,600. The class 2+ gully on the west face is completely dry, although you must cross an exposed snowfield to get there. See TR on 14ers.com. | |

| MountainHikerCO | Matterhorn Creek Date Climbed: Jun 20, 1992 | |
| This was my first climb of Uncompahgre. I approached from Matterhorn Creek Trailhead. I went up one of the ugly gulleys on the west side, and came down the standard route on the south east and circled back around the mountain to return to the same trailhead. | |

| chicagotransplant | Standard Route Date Climbed: Oct 28, 2007 | |
| Climbed the standard route from Nellie Creek. Had to park about 2 miles from the trailhead due to icy conditions in upper Nellie Creek. Beautiful day, calm and not to chilly! Not much snow on the trail until above 12,000' (even then only about 6")then the upper slopes above the cliffs were dry! | |
