Windy and cold
Windy and cold at the top. Great views- we could see the Tetons 75 miles to the south. There were bighorn sheep on the trail, grazing a few feet away as we passed.

From Dunraven Pass
Good hike up a mountain. I liked how you can just about see the whole park from the top.
Short hike up the road- not many views due to big CA wildfires. Lots of bighorn sheep right on the trail.

Mt. Biked
Nice steady grade for a bike and a quick fun down hill. Lots of sheep and a coyote. Spectacular view of the Park. Highly recommended, lots of families do it.

lots of spring snow
vast majority of the Dunraven Pass approach covered in deep snow. made for a difficult but enjoyable hike. splendid summit views!
A fun, easy to follow, busy trail in September. Saw one black bear and ran into many other hikers who had seen more bears. Splendid views from the top.

great hike
Hiked with two friends from Dunraven Pass parking area on a cold, windy May day. Even though it was very cloudy, we could still see the Tetons far off to the south, some 75 miles away. Fantastic views throughout. This hike spurred my interest in scrambling/climbing more difficult mountains, to which I'll always be grateful!
Also climbed from Dunraven Pass on 5/28/09 with my girlfriend Becky. Snow was definitely an issue, but never encountered any dangerously steep patches. Summit views were quite clear, and the views were of course spectacular.
At the time, it was my highest peak and I had such a sense of accomplishment. It was July and there were still snowbanks on the trail at some of the higher elevations which amazed and amused me and my brothers. Washburn was a fun hike and one that challenged me without putting me in over my head. Beautiful views on top.

Grizzly!
No much mountaneering here, but there is a very nice view from the top and we saw a huge male grizzly on the way up:

Dunraven Pass
Had to do a double take at the twenty something guy hiking up the 'road' with trekking poles and a climbing helmet on.
I knew I should have worn my helmet. What was I thinking!

I forget the exact date. We climbed through a blizzard while some of the roads were still closed.

Bears
Grizzlies in view in many areas on the slopes below the peak.
Did it on a family vacation through the west. I especially loved the view of Yellowstone Canyon from the top. I also remember it being very windy from the top.
