Mount Constance was first climbed in 1922 by R. Schellin and A.E. Smith from the southeast.

=== Access ===

[[Boulder Ridge]] (including the Gargoyles, Charlia Lakes, Cloudy Peak, Alphabet Ridge, and Warrior) and Home Lake / Constance Pass are readily accessed via the Buckhorn Wilderness Area ([[U.S. Forest Service]]) side of the Upper [[Dungeness River]] Trail and Marmot Pass. An alternative approach to the Mount Constance massif—including Inner Constance and the twin peaks of [[Warrior Peak|Warrior]]—is via the [[Dosewallips River]] Trailhead off of [[US 101]] and [[Hood Canal]]. A third alternative is to access the Constance massif via [[Quilcene]] logging roads (FS 2700 aka "Penny Creek Road" off U.S. 101) leading to a brief {{convert|6|to|7|mi|0}} ascent to Tunnel Creek Ridge and the high alpine shores of Harrison Lake. Views of the east side of Mount Constance and Warrior are available from these roads (the lower portions of which are paved) which actually connect to FS 2800 and the [[Dungeness, Washington|Dungeness]] / [[Sequim]] area via the 5000-foot Bon Jon Pass.{{citation needed|date=September 2022}}
