| labgloves | On the way out . . . Date Climbed: Aug 25, 2009 | |
| Dropped off M & R near Pinchot pass and headed back down the Sawmill Trail. Decided to go over Colosseum on the way out via Armstrong Col and N ridge, then down to woods lake and out over Sawmill. I found the chute encountered in N ridge route to be loose and unpleasant - but the rest of the climb was great! | ||

| Matthew Holliman | Perkins-Colosseum-Cedric Wright dayhike ![]() Date Climbed: Jul 2, 2005 | |
| Starting at Scotty Springs, hiked up Armstrong Canyon to Perkins (a rather awful sand climb), then traversed along the Sierra Crest to Colosseum. (Colosseum's North Ridge is fun class 3-4, and undoubtedly the best way to climb the peak--stay as close to the ridge as possible for the best rock, exposure, and scrambling). Descended very sandy slopes to Colosseum Col, before heading up to Cedric Wright, then back down the Sawmill Pass trail. Long day. This was both the first and last time I plan to hike along the Sawmill Pass trail, by the way. Even just heading downhill, it seemed long and tiring. I can't imagine hauling a backpack up that thing. | ||

| Langenbacher | Southwest Chute ![]() Date Climbed: May 28, 2006 | |
| Up from camp at Sawmill Lake, through the pass, and up a steep class 2 chute ending up almost half a mile south of the summit. Descended the west ridge, then back to camp. First entry in the register this year. | ||
