| jacobsmith | Union Peak slush  Date Climbed: Mar 4, 2012 | |
| Smithbrook track was well established, but after leaving the road conditions became difficult. Large quantities of snow were falling from the trees, making travel beneath them treacherous, but ironically much easier than in the open areas where the snow was soft and wet. | |

| deekaydrolly | Did I or did I not? Date Climbed: Oct 1, 2011 | |
| I am not sure if I summitted but believe I did...the views were obscured by rain and fog....see comments for a possible alternate route instead of avalanche boulder scramble...this route took me above the boulders however I did not find a climber's log or USGS marker....so, I am not sure if I truly hit the summit....do over is a MUST when weather clears up. | |

| Jimbopo | re-Union with white-outs Date Climbed: Feb 13, 2010 | |
| Best views were on the approach. All pretty mild except for the insanely steep snow-climb in 6 feet of powder up to the ridge. Weather prevented us from safely getting to Jove. Good work-out with friends. | |

| EastKing | Union success! Date Climbed: Feb 13, 2010 | |
| Heavy snow all the way up with near-whiteout conditions and a heavy wind chill on the summit. I'm sure this peak has good view but I only saw ten to twenty feet in front of me. Was going to continue to Jove but weather forced this to be the only summit on this day. | |

| It's a lot easier when you follow the abandoned Nason Ridge trail! | |

| Made it to about 5200 feet on the south ridge March 22, 2009 and was turned around by unconsolidated snow. Returned 3 years later to get Union and Jove. | |

| Andy Dewey | Union & Jove Date Climbed: Apr 12, 2007 | |
| Climbed Union & Jove by snowshoeing up Smithbrook Rd. Fun trip! A Prowler did a low pass just south of Union, right by us. | |

| Cascade Scrambler | Bushwhacked Date Climbed: Aug 31, 2008 | |
| If I go back, it's going to be when snow covers the low lying brush and makes this bushwhack much easier. I wish it hadn't been foggy- I hear the views are great! | |
