"Walked up to Flapjack lakes with B and set up camp. Headed up to Gladys, finding a trail all the way to the summit. Amazing views of the Sawtooth ridge on the way up. B was ready to head back but I wanted to tag Henderson. I dropped down to the beautiful Murdock lakes and got on the southern ridge of Henderson. The book claims class 1 on this one but I was scrambling in some solid 3. Kind of a plateau up at the top of Hendy. My route from Murdock lakes back to Gladys divide could have been more direct. All in all it was a great trip and I'm glad I made it back to this area." — MatthewWinterberg • Jul 30, 2023

"Solo climb up Pershing in fall. The weather was still great and the scramble was fun. The trail is flagged really well all the way into the gully, where the route is pretty straight forward from there. The scramble up to the ridge was a solid class 3 and on the ridge there is a spicy traverse to the summit. I decided to head down to scramble middle as well. Not worth the effort really but the day was nice and I was feeling good. This mountain looks so cool heading up towards Stone so I had wanted to tag it for a bit." — MatthewWinterberg • Oct 4, 2022

"Trillium* Linkup of Washington, Pershing, and Ellinor in a day. With Scott Y. Special thanks to Myles for many days of effort making this route work out. 10k of vert in 12 miles in 17hrs. What a ton of work but the remoteness and knife edge ridges and multiple rappels made this worth it. FKT/OKT" — castrode • Aug 13, 2022

"A beautiful and scenery-packed hike in the Olympics. Took the Upper Big Quilcene Trail up the river to Marmot Pass, then the climber's trail to the summit of Buckhorn. Overall rating 9/10, a climb that has old growth, rivers, meadows, passes, scrambling, and some of the best views in the Olympic Mountains" — MountainQuest • Jul 19, 2022

"Summitted many times in the past but not this time. Wanted to do the north chute ski descent but too committing as a solo. The south couloir, well, too committing and steep! The winter route is almost done - its only got a few more days left before its impassible to a majority of hikers. The summer route is coming in full and the bowl is definitely a fun ski!" — castrode • Jun 25, 2022
