| Started in Alpine at the trail to the First Hamongog. Very difficult route. Not technical, just physically exhausting. Hike to the "twin peak" then traverse to the true summit. Some of the best views in the Wasatch. Well worth it! | |

| Long day trek, really bad weather severe over cast and strong cold winds. This has to be one of my favorite peaks in Utah for the scenery alone. Left for the summit at 8:00 am and made it back to the car at 4:00pm. | |

| PellucidWombat | Route Climbed: Bighorn Pk - Lone Pk Ridge over S summit Date Climbed: October 16th, 2004 | |
| This was the final peak of the day, after starting out in Coalpit Gulch. Joe Bullough and I climbed N & S Thunder Mountains, Bighorn Pk, and Lone Pk before descending Bear Canyon to end our 12 hr 'stroll' in the Wasatch. :-) | |

| This is my favorite peak in the Wasatch. The cirque is AWESOME and it is amazing that you can have this type of alpine experience so close to SLC. Had a close encounter with a cougar at the top of Draper ridge in 97. This is the first "real" peak that I attempted (1990) and the experience made me hooked for life! (See trip report) 3/13/09 Winter ascent with Matthew Van Horn via Cherry Canyon. This was one of the best days I have ever had in the Wasatch. 7 hours up. The ridge was very dodgy and just after the ‘Big Bad Rock’ the steep snow was very windblown with a HUGE cornice on the other side. I elected to stop, while Matt got the balls of steel award for the day by getting to the summit. | |

| This was the first of the really big Wasatch mountains that I climbed, and also my favorite. I probably could have used some trekking poles on the relentlessly steep climb up (and down) Jacob's Ladder. It's an epic climb, and definitely worth it. | |

| Nice winter climb. Nice in summer too. First time on the peak was September 1982 at eight years old. | |

| Failed on a Draper Ridge attempt, but summited via Jacobs Ladder in '93. Steep, hot, dry approach, but the final scramble is thrilling...high exposure! Wonderful summit block, tiny, big drop-offs. One of, if not THE classic peak of the Wasatch. | |

| Great 6 hour climb to the top. 100% snow cover began suddenly at 8,800 feet. The climb up the 800ft high cirque was impressive. The slope got up to 45-50 degrees, with solid scrambling on granite averaging an even steeper slope higher up before the final mixed climbing along the ridgeline. | |
