Trifecta!Trifecta out of Lunch creek. Piegan was the first of the three and offered phenomenal views at sunrise.

PieganI've summited Piegan a few times. Once with Tyler, in 2014 I think and again with Hannah and Sage in 2017. I might of climbed it another year too.

Trio!Easiest mountain in the trio (Piegan, Pollock, Bishops Cap). Simple scramble across scree from turnoff from Piegan Pass trail. Great views of GNP

Four for the Fourth7/4/17 w/Ryan Stadheim
Piegan, Pollock, Bishop's Cap, and Oberlin for an epic "4 for the 4th." Hauled a grill up Oberlin for a sunset grill out. One of the most memorable days of the summer.

First Scramble in GNPThis is a great introduction to GNP. Easy trail to Piegan Pass, and easy cross-country scramble to a saddle and summit. Stable slopes, expansive views. Probably the easiest major summit in the park.

Short trip, big payoff!Summer 2012
Climbed this one with Jose and Colin, two Peak Performers, from Lunch Creek. A very hungover climb, never felt so good after a sweat. The saddle above Piegan Glacier was impressive, as were the views from the summit. The views of Blackfoot Glacier Basin and a slew of 10000 footers await atop this easy summit. From here we headed for Pollock...

From Lunch CreekFor such an easy climb, the summit views, particularly towards the Blackfoot Glacier Basin, were really impressive.

Piegan (windy day)Fun climb, but very windy and unable to enjoy the summit for as long as we would have liked to. Storm came in quickly. Great views.
