| chicagotransplant | September or December? ![]() Date Climbed: Dec 1, 2012 | |
| Very dry, almost depressingly so. One could drive all the way to the Iowa Mill (and beyond) still. Some very shallow snow from Mill to treeline (under 6") and then its mostly dry all the way to the summit from that point, no gaitors today. | ||

| Great day, lots of snow, I hiked on the ridge and got whiteout on the summit because of approaching snowstorm. Great view of Tenmile Mountain Range! | ||

| lordhelmut014 | South Face Ski ![]() Date Climbed: Jun 15, 2010 | |
| Skied a chute on Boreas Pass side, forgot my ski poles at home, used sticks for balance. Not the most memorable ski, but a fun day out after work, great sunset over the Gores. | ||

| Peak wildflowers as I climbed up from Boreas Pass to the south ridge. Views of Mt. Guyot's SE face were awesome! | ||

| Hiked from Boreas Pass, so many false summits! Some snow, was able to glissade nearly 1000ft on the way down. Great weather and views. | ||

| Had a great trip yesterday linking Bald Mountain with 3 peaks on the other side of Boreas Pass: Hoosier Ridge, Red Mountain, and Red Peak. We parked down at Indiana Creek and had a perfect 10-hour day. The views from the top are incredible. Not sure why so many people mention the false summits being an issue as they are all pretty apparent on the topo map. Trip Report. | ||

| ...with the "usual suspects". This day reconfirmed why they are called the "Rocky" mountains. See also reports from Aaron Johnson and mtnhiker13. | ||

| This was, no ifs, ands or buts, one of the absolutely most beautiful days I have ever enjoyed in the mountains. The fresh snowfall, the wild coastal looking cloud formations, the blue-bird skies peaking through the clouds. Definitely more a committing ridge walk that I think a few of us expected, but well worth the extra oomph to overcome all those falkse summits. Partners: Elissa all the way to the summit; Carol and Laraine to the last (highest) false summit where they said: ENOUGH! | ||

| 4/23/05 - Hiked up the north ridge. The lower slopes seem to be a popular area for backcountry skiing. Met Chicago Transplant not too far from the summit - little did I know I'd hike with him several years down the road! A great winter/spring hike. 10/31/09 - Climbed the south ridge after "Madonna Dome" and Boreas Mountain. Deep snow in places. Was able to drive almost 4 miles past the winter closure gate on the Boreas Pass Road. Descended the west ridge which delivered us directly back to the car. | ||

| We put on snowshoes for the approach and looked for a avalanche free route to the north ridge. From there it was a ridge walk with an alpine feel to the summit. Very nice day. | ||
