| Climbed this peak or perhaps Wellsville Cone in the spring of 1995 with my girlfriend. Had a delicious picnic lunch and a fun day on top. | |

| This was my 5th trip to the crest of the Wellsvilles, a beautiful place to take it all in. I did it solo and slept on the crest of the Wellsville Cone, talk about a room with a view. | ||

| punchline | Rattlesnake Trail Date Climbed: Oct 21, 2010 | |
| Looked at the weather report for the next week and decided better get out for one more day in the sun! Trail was in good shape although I agree with previous post about wearing shorts! Lots of growth over the trail especially in the steeper sections before the long traverse over to the summit. Headed over to Wellsville Cone and then back down Rattlesnake Trail. Saw one other individual. Great views and fall colors. | |

| Went up the Rattlesnake Trail and summited Box Elder, then continued on to the Wellsville Cone and back again. The rattlesnake trail is a bit rough in some spots and completely overgrown in others. Break out the bushwhacking skills... | |

| D-bo | Hot day! Date Climbed: Jul 8, 2010 | |
| There's only shade in the lower part of the canyon. Some sections have loose rocks so be careful going down. No rattlesnakes today! Wonderful views on top, and for most of the way up. I definitely earned the Fat Boy ice cream sandwich I ate when I was done. | |

| Climbed from Rattlesnake. Done it a couple of times and it always takes way longer than I expect. Ended up descending with my headlamp both times. | |

| David Mortensen | Coldwater Route Date Climbed: Jul 9, 2001 | |
| We started just west of Mendon and went past Coldwater lake and then up to Stewart Pass. From there we hiked along the ridge to the Wellsville Cone and Box Elder Peak. | |

| MikerHiker | Wet Hike Date Climbed: Jun 18, 2009 | |
| Wow, That's a steep mountain! Great trail though. Dean and I started out at 7:30 am and reached the summit just a little after 11am We did has some December type weather about .7 from the summit. but as long as the thunder stayed away we kept going. No views from on top, too many clouds, we didn't stay long on top since the wind was blowing so hard and it was way cold, Someone needs to replace the register if they get a chance, I wish I would have been carrying a spare. It was toast. Great Hike! Great Company! Thanks Dean | |

| Fellow SP member MikerHiker and myself went up in interesting conditions. We had to wait out a thunderstorm for awhile and we were hailed and rained on. Another delay was caused by the need to stop and wring out my socks. No views on the summit thanks to fog and clouds and also noted that the summit register was in tatters. Useless. We did have some nice views open up as we descended. Met three hikers who were on their way up when we were getting close to our car. Mike is a great companion and we enjoyed the day despite the conditions. | |

| Great peak to end May. Saw some boy scouts that were taking the day to traverse the ridge from Box Elder to Wellsville Cone and down the route to the north. I could see my grandparents house that live in Tremonton from the summit - very cool. | |

| xmtbiker | Ski descent Date Climbed: Mar 1, 2009 | |
| What a great ascent up Pine Canyon. We descended via one of the steep couloirs off the summit to the east. Great weather compared to the last couple times in the Wellsvilles. | ||
