| distressbark | East Ridge  Date Climbed: Aug 17, 2012 | |
| Awesome hike. We saw a total of six people the entire day - three trail crew memebers on our way up, and three swimmers heading for a late evening dip at Carlton Lake on our way back to the trailhead. It was a real treat to have this area all to ourselves! Spectacular summit views - I was especially impressed by the beautiful lake basin east of the summit. | |

| Montana Matt | Great run! Date Climbed: Jul 8, 2007 | |
| Leah and I ran/hiked to the top on a lazy July afternoon. Took a non-standard route, just for fun, circling around Carlton lake to the northwest. Wonderful day! | |

| MtMtnHiker | Post holing the whole way back | |
| Went up in June not really planning on going all the way, just wanted to see how far I could get over the waist deep snow. Made pretty good time and had fairly easy walk up. Soft snow on the way back down was a bit of a challange. | |

| urnotreal | Good day | |
| August 2008 Nice on the way up but we were chased off by a thunderstorm. Luckily, we reached summit just in time to enjoy the views before it hit us. By the time we got back to the trail, it was sunny again. | |

| montaneer | Missoula Classic Date Climbed: Aug 8, 2003 | |
| I've hiked this peak several times with each one being unique and memorable. One such time left rmick and myself atop the summit at early morn. napping in the warm sunlight. A classic for any hiker/climber in the Missoula area. | |

| thephotohiker | The Connecting Ridge to Sweeney Date Climbed: Aug 14, 2010 | |
| 14aug10 - Hit this summit again before following the connecting ridge to Sweeney Peak. The ridge is no cake walk, but it's a great climb for anyone willing to put out the effort. 26jun09 - can't remember how many times I've climbed this peak - funny that I never signed the Climbers' Log. This time there was plenty of snow which forced Class 3 climbing on the exposed rock on Lolo-North's east ridge. To make things more interesting I climbed Point 8694 on the way to both Lolo summits. | |

| Topped out on Lolo before heading south and completing the ridge traverse to Sweeney Peak. Still enough snow for some skiers to be out. | |

| montanaboy | East Ridge Date Climbed: Jul 26, 2003 | |
| A popular Missoula area peak and this day was no exception with many out on the mountain. August 29, 2004. A second outing where I went up Peak 8694 and then straight up Lolo's north face. A nice variation from the standard route. | |
