| Vic Hanson | Two Lolas  Date Climbed: Aug 31, 2012 | |
| The trail is easy to follow, the only possible confusion is when it follows a jeep road for awhile. Shortly after the broken down bridge it goes off to the left. Coming back I notice bike tire tracks on what appears to be a use trail on the left side of the road, but I didn't follow it. It appeared to merge with the trail again right where it first met the road. I also hiked over to North Lola, which is at the far end of the ridge between the two peaks. There are summit registers on both peaks. Round trip time was 4:24. | |

| LincolnB | Footbridge Date Climbed: Jul 22, 2012 | |
| Took the rough dirt road to a dilapidated old bridge marked "footbridge" on the topo map, at 7600'. Looked like others had driven across but I didn't risk it. From here the summit is appx 2.5 miles and 1600'. A nice woodland trail past beautiful Cold Stream Meadow, up to the summit with great views of the northern Sierra, from Freel to Sierra Buttes and beyond. | |

| Generally no more than a few inches of snow. Snow was hard and some ice, but footing was good. No need for snow shoes. Really strange for January. Very cold and windy on summit ridge. Overall a great hike. | ||

| Still a considerable amount of snow on the trail above 8,000 and an abundance of wild flowers along the lower trail. | |

| We were able to drive quite a ways toward the summit of Mount Lola along a rough road that ran more or less parallel to the trail. It was a pleasant ridge walk from Pt 8944 north of the peak to the summit. This was part of a trip with fellow Cohpers to climb various county highpoints in the Tahoe region. | |

| Hiked up in the the afternoon with my wife, starting from the trailhead. There is a dirt road that goes up quite far but the trail only touches it a couple of times; most of the route is a hiking trail. We were happy to find snow still on the east shoulder and above the NE bowl. We had a good camping experience at Findley Camp on Jackson Meadows Reservoir, which is very close to English Mountain. | |

| Continuous snow after the first half mile of the trail. Took the snowboard to the summit and snagged a couple turns on the way down. Tons of snow for almost June. | |

| Tagging another OGUL peak (and didn't realize that the county highpoint was also up there, so I'll likely be heading back at some point. Summit was nice, the trail was fairly noninteresting- all under tree cover and everything had long since dried out this summer. Pics are here. | |

| cjrandall | Complete solitude on Labor Day weekend Date Climbed: Aug 29, 2008 | |
| Hiked from the trailhead on Henness Pass Road. Didn't see a single car on my way in or out, not a soul on the mountain in or out, which surprised me on this long weekend. Hiked cross-country to the Sierra County highpoint on the north ridge. Instead of hiking back up to Mount Lola on the way back, I sidehilled through the talus bowl on the southeast side of the peak and climbed past a small snowfield en route back to the trail. Very enjoyable outing, amazing clear views in all directions, solitude was very nice. Very warm, almost no wind, perfect conditions. | |

| Hiked up from Perazzo Meadows via the Cold Stream trail. What glorious views from this humble summit! Then on to Lola North and down the wonderful north ridge cross country. I love this uncrowded part of the Sierra. | |

| Relatively straightforward hike to the summit. We encountered a mountain biker at a surprisingly high spot on the trail--I'd be very impressed if he biked all the way to the summit. | ||

| Took the day off work to bag two county highpoints with Sady. Ended up driving a PG&E worker out who got stuck with his 4WD. Drove him out to Nyack. All in all a cool hike with some cool views of the Sierras. I will be sure to go back. Also did Lola North. | |

| Nice and easy hike to the summit from the Mt. Lola Trailhead. Super gusty winds at the summit almost knocked me over a few times. Tagged Lola North then headed cross country back. Didn't see another soul. | |
