| sangus | Boundary Peak - I work out! ![]() Date Climbed: May 5, 2012 | |
| Not much snow left, just a little near the summit. Still cold and windy on the ridge line. We were able to drive all the way up to the saddle next to the Queens Mine Trailhead. | ||

| Collected the Nevada state highpoint on Independence Day. Tough climb, sometimes over loose scree, but the views of the Sierras from the summit offset all the hardship. It was a perfect summer day. And we saw the wild horses too. | ||

| Jermover | Winter Climb ![]() Date Climbed: Feb 20, 2012 | |
| Could not make it to the mine. Had to hike about a 1.5 miles farther. Ankle to knee high snow on the lower mountain with drifts and bare rock/scree on the upper mountain. Kicked a lot of steps. We had ice axe, but was not really necessary. Fun climb with my brother. | ||

| Alex Wood | No Snow ![]() Date Climbed: Dec 20, 2011 | |
| Drove all the way to Queen Mine with no problem at all. Started at 5:30 and summited at 11:00am. Sub-zero temps all day long. So cold! There was hardly any snow at all. We brought crampons and ice axes and didn't have to use them at all. I left my trekking poles on Montgomery, if you find them, please PM me! Awesome summit with awesome views. | ||

| rankinesoccer | Snow and the Flu ![]() Date Climbed: Oct 15, 2010 | |
| I had the flu and it was a tough day. Very remote. Saw only one person all day. We parked at the wrong spot and it made the trip much longer than it should have been. A couple feet of snow and some wild horses, glissading. A real gem. | ||

| Redwic | State Highpoint #41!!! ![]() Date Climbed: Sep 10, 2011 | |
| After a nearly two-year hiatus from State Highpointing, a friend and I sought out, and successfully summited, Boundary Peak. DON'T BELIEVE THE HYPE: The so-called "scree" is just loose gravelly-sand... kind of annoying but manageable. The loosest stuff is on the lower slopes; the upper slopes are bouldery. Also, there is a well-defined trail basically leading from the Trail Canyon TH to the summit; no scrambling needed and very easy to follow. I wouldn't rate this as a peak for amateur hikers, but it is not very difficult, either. | ||

| A very nice hike in the White Mountains. Traversed over to Montgomery as well and made it back to the car well before the thunderstorms started. | ||

| mlandau3 | Trail Canyon Variant ![]() Date Climbed: Jul 20, 2011 | |
| What holds this mountain up? A tremendous amount of loose scree on the variant. Great views of the Sierra's from the ridge once the scree was below us. | ||

| fedak | Trail Canyon Variant ![]() Date Climbed: Jul 19, 2011 | |
| Altitude impacted me far more than I was expecting and the slog up the sandy Trail Canyon variant slope took me quite a bit longer than I was planning. Anyone done both the Trail Canyon and Trail Canyon variation routes and can compare the two? Might try the standard route if I go back to do Montgomery at some point. The variant was a rather steep overly sandy slog. Pics/commentary are here. | ||
