| Pretty good day up there. Started from the hairpin turn on the Guanella Pass road, went up to Naylor Lake, around its north shore and then followed the gully up to the Argentine-Wilcox saddle. A short hike over windblown tundra from there. | |

| Starting from the Peru Gulch road, we had planned on taking the trail to Argentine Pass. Upon reaching a viewpoint of this side we determined that it was extra mileage and there were several couloirs traversing the trail that covered it in snow. Therefore we only used the bottom, more southern, section of the trail and then hiked up the steeper tundra direct to the summit. Many options exist on this wide face. On the descent we glissaded one of the several couloirs, probably for over 1,500 vertical feet. An ice axe was handy for the descent and several of these early season couloirs would make fine moderate snow routes if conditions are right after the road opens in the spring. | |

| The trail is the old road that continues past the mine to Argentine Pass at 13,200 feet. From the pass I picked a route over UN 13449 (class I/II) to the summit. | |
