| mhengst | Via County Line  Date Climbed: Jul 27, 2009 | |
| Came from camp on Taboose Pass on the final day of a 4 day 4 peak trip. Climbed the county line ridge. There was a short section where you traverse some loose rock but other than that an easy climb. Awesome views from the top. Descended via a scree chute back to the pass. | |

| Final peak of a four-peak weekend including Wynne, Goodale and Striped -- best views of the bunch by far. Fun scree ski down the chute. | |

| bechtt | Taboose standard slog Date Climbed: Jun 14, 2008 | |
| Day 1 of a tough weekend with Taboose Pass and Cardinal Mtn on Day 1 and Arrow Pk and exit on Day 2. Standard approach straight up from the lakes below the pass. Tried to keep it in the Cl 2/3 rocks as the scree was terrible (but ok for descent) Great views and perfect day -- looks like people use the mtn as a ski peak in the winter. Arrow Pk is a long ways away... Pictures | |

| Taboose Pass was not as bad as I thought from reading earlier reports. Made it to the summit in about 5h. Great views! Then climbed Goodale as well. Thanks, Tom, for waiting with cold beer at the TH. | |

| Somehow, Ryan and I managed to climb halfway up the wrong peak before realizing we weren't on Cardinal. Doh! Recovered from our errant ways, summiting Cardinal and then Goodale for good measure. Trip Report | |

| The county line route is almost entirely class 1 and the hike up to Taboose Pass was easier than expected making for an enjoyable day. Descended the loose chute on the south side. On the way up we spotted a bear heading down to the trailhead for snacks. Excellent views. | |

| Dayhike from Taboose pass. Much less of a slog than anticipated. | ||

| With Steve and Charles, camped in a dry patch below lake 11,840 ft+. The south chute had frozen snow, so it was up the slope left of it. Beautiful day after a cold windy night! Pictures here. | |

| Sleeping at 11,500 at Taboose was great. Going at a blistering fast pace because your leaders are ultra marathoners... not so great. Heehee. It was fun, I was sore for 3 days afterwards.. Loved it! | |

| A long training hike/talus slog rewarded with tremendous views of this part of the range. Overnighted near the pass with a full moon. | |

| Dayhiked up from below Red Lake Trailhead on snowshoes the entire way. Fantastic views on both sides of ridge. One of my favorites. | ||

| Matthew Holliman | Route Climbed: Southwest Ridge/County Line (ascent) / South Chute (descent) Date Climbed: Aug 15, 2003 | |
| I skipped Norman Clyde Peak during the '03 Sierra Challenge (I judged it likely to be too spicy for me at the time), so I substituted this one instead. Dayhike out of Taboose Pass TH (followed by a dayhike of Mt. Tyndall the next day for good measure). Not a particularly good climb, but it had some nice views. | |

| thebeave7 | Route Climbed: East Ridge from Taboose Pass TH Date Climbed: 4/18/05 | |
| A spectacular but trying climb up the direct East ridge from the Taboose Pass Trail. Lots of sage brush, lots of sand, and even more snow. But what a wonderful summit day. Trip Report here Eric J Lee | |
