Date Climbed: Oct 29, 2008
I drove 1.7 miles beyond Phi Kappa Mine to 8,900' in my Ford Explorer (easy-good road). Hiked straite up to the right (west) of the summit in light snow cover. Had lunch on top of Peak 10,585' and two Mountain Goats appeared right below me on the northeast ridge!

Date Climbed: Nov 3, 2007

Took Trail Creek to the pass and then headed up the ridge to Phi Kappa and then over to Summit Creek. Great fall weather. Some patchy snow on the trail and ridge but nothing deep. Saw what seemed to be Mt. Lion tracks along the upper ridge.

Date Climbed: Jul 9, 2006

Took Summit Creek Trail to the pass and then up Phi Kappa and along the ridge to Summit Creek Peak. Came straight down the face from Summit Creek Peak to the trail. The trail up to the pass has significant numbers of downed trees probably from avalanches that make for slow going at times.

Date Climbed: Jul 27, 2003

We did a big loop with Phi Kappa, then 10585 (thanks, Dan!), then down the face (sree slide).
Evidence of truly awesome avy slides- trees on one side of the valley pushed

A beautiful approach and a good idea to hike this one first if your thinking of trying the DBE... it may change your mind.

IdahoSummitsRoute Climbed: West Face Date Climbed: July 5th, 2003  Sucess!

From Trail Creek Summit, followed Summit Creek to the base of the west face and climbed that to the summit. Followed the ridge north to Peak 10585 afterward. Peak 10585 is actually more impressive of a mountain than Phi Kappa.
