"Porcupine to 3FJ log. Amazing how the area has come back to life since the huge fire @15 years ago. Pretty straight forward climb for me to the top. Chimney on the summit block is still in good shape. No wind today. Very pleasant." — oregon-mt-goat • Sep 22, 2023

"3FJ no gear solo!! What an awesome peak . In my opinion, the trip reports on PB make it seem more difficult than it really is . First noteworthy Obstacle is “ the crawl” which I was able to avoid on the way up by going a bit to the right and up the looser but less exposed rock. After that it’s really just the summit block, I thought everything else was standard class 2/low 3. I was totally socked in the whole time & visibility was maybe 20-30ft which made things a little more difficult but everything is obvious once you roll up on it . I was able to solo the chimney they say goes at 5.4, i believe it is more class 5 but nevertheless still difficult. The rock is definitely loose, but everything I needed to be sturdy was very sturdy I never thought I was in a dangerous position If I’m anyone would like to attempt Jefferson / Washington before the season is over leave a comment and I’ll give you my # ( I have rope and gear if we want it)" — joshortman • Sep 2, 2023

"Great day on the trail to tag 3FJ one more time. Trail and mountain are in great shape. Two and a half hours from car to summit. Held nothing back and charged hard. Love this rotten volcano plug." — oregon-mt-goat • Aug 14, 2020
