Climbed Gold Hill from Bull-of-the-Woods TH. Lots of snow on the way from BoW to the ridge. Lots of bighorns on the summit ridge. Clear skies, great views!

Date Climbed: Jul 3, 2008

Climbed Gold Hill twice this summer. First time on July 3 we summited via long canyon and saw a huge black bear at timberline. We made the mistake of going down bull of the woods and walked through snow until the meadow, long canyon was clear of snow.

Date Climbed: Jun 22, 2003

A nice hike, up via Bull-of-the-Woods (#64) and back via Long Canyon (#63). Gorgeous day but darn windy on the summit. Saw a huge herd of bighorn sheep just before the summit.

lizrdboyWinter Ski Trip  Sucess!
Date Climbed: Mar 31, 2007

Williams Lake area was unstable, so we headed up Gold Hill from Bull-O-The-Woods. It seemed like a long hump, but the views were spectacular. We were beat by the time we topped the awesome false summit and looked on toward the ugly real summit in disbelief. Another 15 minutes and we were there. In the stiff cold wind, we tagged the summit cairn and headed down. The top was good skiing, but the woods just above the Bull Meadow, was cement. We traversed to the trail and skinned back. Good fun.

Really easy, fun hike from Taos Ski Valley. New Mexico's mountains are a blast! Great weather, too.

Great hike, not very difficult, great views from the summit. Took Long's Canyon trail on the way down, very nice loop.

Very very nice day. 4th summit of Gold Hill. I don't remember what the dates were on the other two. One of the best views in New Mexico.

I wanted to bag a new and challenging peak, without the crowds. I found myself alone atop Gold Hill, where spectacular views abound. For details on routes and other handy (I hope) info, see the trip report.

charmsRoute Climbed: Goose Lake Trail #66 Date Climbed: June 14, 2003  Sucess!

I was out fourwheeling with some friends who wanted to stop and eat lunch at Goose Lake. I took the opportunity to summit with my wife and one of my friends . Since the trip wasn't really planned, we summited at 4:30 pm with an ominous thunderstorm building in the west. We got some cool pictures of some big horn sheep (which seemed unusually friendly) and some informational pics of the switchbacks that lead up out of the Goose Lake basin.

Climbed with my wife and father on a beautiful, clear day in July. Awesome views from the summit in all directions. The views here are just as good as those from Wheeler Peak, but hardly anyone climbs Gold Hill.
