| Climbed in a 12 hour marathon with a Seattle Mountaineers group. We were in the clouds all day but it was good conditions for climbing.I wonder how many people do this climb more than once! | |

| ExcitableBoy | Whitehorse Glacier | |
| Had heard the bushwack was pretty bad. We must have found the best path because it wasn't terrible. Great views into the Three Fingers from the summit. 12 hours round trip. | |

| nickmech | Lone Tree Pass Date Climbed: May 5, 2007 | |
| Lovely little mountain when viewed from Darrington. Six in our team with cloudy skies. No problems for us on the route. Crampons and axe only needed. | |

| Norman | Lone Tree Pass Route Date Climbed: May 5, 2007 | |

| ericd | Lone Tree Pass route Date Climbed: Mar 10, 2004 | |
| Multiple attempts; still is unfinished business. Made Lone Tree pass in like 2hrs; post-holing until summer, slope gets steeper on backside, a big open gap between rock summit and Whitehorse glacier. Partner and I rapelled for a direct decent down. Avalanche chutes before Lone tree pass is kinda creepy. | |

| osatrik | Avalanche turned us around in 1996 Date Climbed: Apr 20, 1996 | |
| Chuck, Ivar, and I turned around after watching an avalanche come around a corner an right up to where we were standing. This was pretty low on the mountain, only about 3600-3700 ft, near the point where the trail comes out into the more open areas. I haven't been back. | |

| leftfield | Route Climbed - Niederprum Trail Date Climbed: Jun 11, 2006 | |
| Went up with 5 others on an official Mazama climb. Rainy at first but then clear breezeless weather on summit day. Just got the last dying gasps out of the snow bridge. Camped in the meadow at 4800 feet. Pretty hammered by the time we got back to the trailhead. Why don't more people climb this? | |

| lneher | Timed the snow conditions and bridge well Date Climbed: May 21, 2006 | |
| Like KathS describes in her pictures, the snow conditions were good, but the snow bridge was probably unstable the week after our climb. We used existing slings around a large rock for the rappel, and added another locking 'biner. The week before the snow was a bit soft and the bridge was solid. We lost about 500' after Lone Tree Pass, making it a 7000', 10 mi RT, 13 hr car-to-car day. | |

| setrent | Route Climbed: Neiderprum Trail Date Climbed: Various | |
| A steep trail. In late season the moat forces a fourth class scramble to the summit. As of 2004, there was a long piece of webbing anchored to a suspect rock for aid. | ||

| Eric Sandbo | Route Climbed: Snow Gulch Glacier Date Climbed: Mid-January, 1982 | |
| Overnight, with a planned bivy near the summit, during severe (for Whitehorse) cold. See the Trip Report. | |

| What a workout! My fifth time on this mountain and I finally made the summit. Five hours up and four down. Mosquito bit, spider bit, scratched and bruised and ready to do it again tomorrow. dn | |
