| Scott Wesemann | Fun hike  Date Climbed: May 20, 2009 | |
| What a great hike before work. This was a lot more fun than I thouhgt it would be. Had a little rain, a lot of laughs and rousted a rattle snake from its slumber. Actually Matt almost stepped on it. Good times!! I'll be back. | |

| sarah.simon | Up the ridge, Down Georges Hollow Date Climbed: Nov 9, 2008 | |
| I think this is as great little urban hike. I enjoyed the scamper up the ridge. I had this entire butte to myself until my way down toward George's Hollow, when I encoutered a trio of Wasatch Mountain Club members. (All the other hikers were busy on Big Beacon, but I was too short on time for that one.) We chatted for a while and enjoyed the view of Salt Lake City, then I headed down George's Hollow to my rental car. I strongly recommend this loop route to anyone interested in this hike. This was a nice way to kick off a business trip (I tucked this one into a Sunday afternoon before the start of meetings in SLC.) | |

| seanpeckham | via the ridge in a blizzard Date Climbed: Oct 6, 2007 | |
| This is a very nice hike, and I bet the views would be fantastic but as it was I had 100 feet of visibility. I continued up the ridge to Big Beacon and came down Georges Hollow, which was a gorgeous fall/winter wonderland with an inch of brand-new snow dusting the pink, orange, and green leaves and the tiny Gambel oak canopy enclosing the trail. Edited to add: I did this hike again (again continuing to Big Beacon) under blue sky March 22, 2008. | |

| Went up through Georges Hollow, wanted to continue on to Mount Wire but low visibility made me shorten the trip, down via Georges Hollow as well | |

| I was short on time and decided that Red Butte would be a good choice. My route went straight up the ridge and I came down Georges Hollow. The flowers were out and everything was so green up there. You could easily combine Big Beacon and Red Butte in the same hike since they are connected by the same ridge. It was a nice way to spend the afternoon. | |

| Scott | Georges Hollow | |
| I always did this hike in early spring or winter. The reason was that its one of the first routes that melts off in the Wasatch. This was all in the 1980's or very early 90's before I had snowshoes or did the higher peaks in winter. | |

| hgrapid | Tough hiking Date Climbed: Mar 24, 2006 | |
| Red Butte was tougher than I thought it would be. It was steep, with some deeper snow slowing me down. There were 3 or 4 false summits before I reached the actual one. It was difficult, but fun. | |
