| SawtoothSean | Via Singletrack Mtn Bike Date Climbed: Oct 22, 2006 | |
| Started just north of Idaho City and followed a motorcycle single track trail on my mountain bike that follows the SW ridges to the lookout via dozens of ups and downs. In the prime of hunting season, I saw no one which is remarkable given this location. The vertical ascent is over 8000 ft and 28 miles (roundtrip). One of the longest climbs on a mountain bike I've done in an afternoon. | |

| IdahoKid | Got Lost But Had Fun Date Climbed: Apr 22, 2006 | |
| After having previous plans of climbing Quicksilver Mountain not work out, I decided a last minute snowshoe. The Road to the summit was covered in so much snow I never so most of it and got a little lost but made it anyway. Beautiful spring day! | |

| kdonaldson | Trail from Mores Creek Summit Date Climbed: Feb 6, 2005 | |
| Decided to cross country ski, however this was a bad snow winter and there was frozen snow machine tracks which made it very treacherous without edges. Needless to say - I probably walked more than I skied. Took my dog too. | |

| SawtoothSean | Route Climbed: Mores Creek / Hungarian Ridge Date Climbed: 1995-2005 25+ times | |
| Besides the winter fun, the route up from Mores Creek Summit provides excellent Mountain biking or trail running route in the warmer months. The Hungarian Ridge is mostly a single track trail, which is uncommon for the area. The parking area is newly expanded to handle the surplus of Snow-mobilers. Steer clear of nearby Pilot Peak in the winter unless you like noise and fumes. The parking area (Mores Creek Summit) is also a good road cycling goal and turnaround point during warmer months. | |

| Super Dave | Route Climbed: Trail from Mores Creek Summit Date Climbed: Jan 3, 2006 | |
| First time on snowshoes in about 15 years and one of my hiking buddies comes up with this one, 10 miles round trip and we had to break trail all the way. Still very enjoyable, even with the soreness the next day. Trip Report | |
