Fogged in
Seems to common on this peak for it to be fogged in. The scramble is only Class 2 and low Class 3 but the rocks are very loose so bring a helmet on this peak especially if you are doing this with friends.

Yeah Buddy!
Do yourself a favor and get into this basin and climb these peaks!

Good climb
Nice approach with some great scrambling to the summit! The boot trail was a bit hard to follow, but we still made it up quickly. Sadly, our views were suppressed by thick fog. Still, a great adventure!

PCT to Red
I love this scramble! A bit of snow on the route to the summit. Awesome views of nearby Snoqualmie, Kendall, and Lundin.

Kendall to Red Mt. traverse
Traversed from the PCH and made to many mistakes from Kendall. New something was up. Turned around after Red from traversing anymore. Snow melting and loose rock!!!

Standard Route
Fun climb. Made a mistake in trying to get over to the PCT and ran into the cliff. Resulted in a lot of downclimbing on steep grass.

SW ridge
Still a fair amount of snow in the area, but not enough to climb the south face properly on snow, so followed the trail up the southwest ridge, with a couple deviations onto or away from snow. We got a crack o' noon start, and pretty much had the place to ourselves. It was partly cloudy by evening and Rainier was buried, but we could see Adams, Baker, and Glacier.

Great Climb
A very quiet day hike. Nice and peaceful, no one around.

Beautiful Conditions
I wasnt really intending to make a summit attempt, but once I made it to Commonwealth Basin it was just too tempting. Having never been in the area before, I followed some skiers tracks heading up the SW aspect of the mountain. It appears now that I picked the wrong line for a day that I neglected to bring crampons. The gully I was in soon turned to avalanche scoured 45 degree ice and the softball sized chunks of ice whizzing by my head convinced me it was time to go home and try another time.

Nice quick easy hike in, and great scramble up to the summit! As soon as I found the boot path turn off, I found a rocky gully and just started scrambling up the rock all the way to the summit. Very nice class 3. No views on top though which was a bummer. Tried the NW ridge in an attempt to summit Lundin next. I'm gonna go ahead and say that was not a good idea. The route runs into cliffs pretty quickly leading to steep class 3 on loose rock followed by your choice of crappy loose class 3 gully, bush whacking, or 100+ foot class 4 rock face. I went down the class 4 which was sketchy but the rock was solid. After I got down I decided to save Lundin for a day when I would actually get some views. Great scramble though! It's one I'd happily do again.

Blueberries in October
Scrambled up SW face from Red Lake after enjoying blueberries on abandoned Commonwealth Basin trail. Found a few centimeters of snow and drying flowers on the summit for Monika. Marveled at goat tracks in the summit snow and 3 red tail hawks doing acrobatics around the mountaintop. Snow was sparse and only on the top 30m of the mountain.
