| mjholmes | Nice Hike  Date Climbed: Sep 30, 2012 | |
| Hiked up from Born Lakes on our way back to 4th of July TH. Decent informal trail most of the way up. Took a cross-country route through the burn area on the way down. Saw a buck, doe and fawn family. | |

| sprosseda | XC up SW ridge Date Climbed: Jul 5, 2009 | |
| No trails, just up from parking lot through burned woods to top. About 1,500 ft straight up. Very quick and easy with great views for a seemingly small mountain (although still higher than many Sawtooth summits visible across the valley). | |

| Fun peak! A very relaxing walk but tall enough for the weather to sneak up on you. | |

| boisedoc | great fall weather Date Climbed: Sep 28, 2008 | |
| made a loop of it by going up the south ridge after following the trail from 4th of July Lake up to the pass- this ridge is more scenic than the more direct ascent up the southwest ridge. Lots of burned forest in the area. My 5 year old almost made it to the top before he needed a lift | |

| Scrambling Man | Blackman-Patterson Combo: June of 2000 | |
| Three of us made the trek from Fourth of July TH to Blackman Peak and then hiked the ridge up to Patterson. Good views. Easy route to summit both peaks. Reached the peak again in July of 2005 from the trail that heads to Born Lakes from Fourth of July. | |

| BeDrinkable | Route Climbed: Ant's Basin divide Date Climbed: August 9 2005 | |
| Nice mountain to jog up in order to get a nice overview of the White Clouds. The view across the basin to D.O. Lee peak is fantastic. You can't help but look at it and drool over that mountain. | |

| IdahoKid | Route Climbed: Strawberry Basin Date Climbed: August1st/05 | |
| I planned on climbing Patterson Peak as well but bad weather threatened. This is a great peak if you wan fast views of the entire range of the WCs, especially DO Lee, which is especially impressive from the summit. | |
