montbadlandsHellroaring Plateau  Sucess!
Date Climbed: Aug 22, 2008
A nice dayhike that's rewarded with one of the best views in the Beartooths at the summit. Climbed up the southeast ridge and returned via the "ramp" down to Sliderock Lake. Made it almost all the way back to the Hellroaring trailhead before seeing another person.

Date Climbed: Aug 20, 2006
Solo climb up the south ramp from Hellroaring trailhead. Easiest 12,000 footer in the Beartooths. About 10 miles round trip with 2400 feet elevation gain. Nice day trip. Didn`t see anybody.

Date Climbed: Jul 4, 1977

Came up with my dad, who was then 55 (but continued peak bagging with me into his 70s). North Carolina born and bred, he was sure impressed by those big boulders on top! In those days, there was also a very entertaining summit register at the top.

We enjoyed the high life on the summit while baking in the sun.

CBakwinRoute Climbed: East Side Date Climbed: July 15, 2005  Sucess!

Just a stroll up from the Hellroarin' trailhead, except I had a 35 lb pack, then continued on down to the pass between Moon and Black Canyon Lakes, down to Moon Lake and on over to Frosty Lake above Glacier. Rough country, no trails. Nice summit.

mr kieranRoute Climbed: Southeast Ramp Date Climbed: August 1998  Sucess!
Spent the night in my vehicle at the Hellroaring trailhead at 9,800. Started off amidst the morning alpenglow, dropped off the plateau into Sliderock Lake, then up the ramp to the top. Easy stroll, but nothing is real easy at 12,000 feet. The view is one of the best in the Beartooths, and you can see most of the 12,000 footers, as well as a good part of the North Absaroka. On the return, we dropped down the south ridge and circled back to our car that way.

granitegrabberRoute Climbed: northern side via misery creek drainage Date Climbed: late June 2003  Sucess!

We left our pickup at the bottom of the rock creek canyon (the hellroaring lakes road was closed because an avalanche took out a brige) and went up misery creek to the plateau. The skies were somewhat cloudy, and the wind was progressively colder as we approached the top. Once on top, we froze in the wind, ate lunch, and climbed one of the spires. After that we headed down the south side, crossed over the hellroaring drainage, and dropped down to the pickup.
