Climbed in 1/06 as part of a Sawteeth/Lower Great Range traverse, and in 5/06 as part of a Great Range traverse from Marcy to WJ Gap. During the 1/06 climb, injured my right hand while glissading. Still hurts from time to time...
Route Climbed: from Gothics Date Climbed: Oct 5 2003
Started at St Huberts, went up Gothics, then down the great range hitting Armstrong, Upper and Lower Wolfjaw. Great fall colors!. Early snow & ice made it kind of treacherous.
Route Climbed: Trail on ridge from Wolf Jaw direction Date Climbed: Feb 16, 1999 and May 25,96
Did 4 new winter summits this day and Upper Wolf Jaw twice. Solo- but hey, it is the Great Range and I had lots of boy scouts up there to break the trails in.
Summer hike was part of my first hike in the 'Dacks
Route Climbed: Weld trail and out by Beaver Meadow Falls Date Climbed: 9/4/04
Cloudy, but still some great views. Wanted to go on to Uwj, but not enough daylight left.Best trip of the year yet. The falls toward the end of the trail was spectacular!!!
Route Climbed: Range trail from UWJ Date Climbed: Oct 11, 2003
Conditions warmer than expected, 70s and sunny. After a nice rest on UWJ, was ready to hit Armstrong. Rugged hike down UWJ and then back up Armstrong. Nice views from the top, more open than the previous two peaks.
Route Climbed: Range Trail, from Wedge trail in AMR (Ausable Club) Date Climbed: 5/10/03
Combined this early season hike with UWJ and Gothics. Still had deep snow below summits, but weather was perfect (low 60's and sunny). In fact snowpack left only 5-7 feet of the 20 foot ladder on the moutains east side visable.
Nice view west from the small summit ledge. This mountain is steep when approached from the east (Upper Wolf Jaw).
