This was my first ever ascent of a peak in winter, and although a white-out on top, what an enjoyable experience!

A nice overcast day on the east ridge until we got out of the trees. Between the spindrift and the high winds it turned out to be an adventure after all.

Date Climbed: Jul 11, 2009

10-11jul09 - A 2-day outing with my friend Jim. Pyramid Peaks the first day then followed the ridge-crest from Holloway Lake to the summit of Sweeney Peak.

12jun09 - Took a couple of friend to visit Sweeney Peak for their first time. Still plenty of snow up high - their dogs had a great time romping on the snow fields.

27jul08 - Took a couple friends up this peak on a perfect-weather day. It was their first time on this mountain.

15jun08 - Made a solo climb on snowshoes just to view the remaining snow. There were drifts up to 25' deep near the summit.

10aug07 – Did a solo climb of the connecting ridge between Lolo and Sweeney. A wonderful, though taxing, climb I recommend for anyone who likes route finding plus Class 3 and 4 climbing.

13aug06 - Climbed the East Ridge route with my brother and wife. Perfect weather and an all around good day. Also did a little recon for a later attempt at the Lolo-Sweeney connecting ridge.

14jul06 - Climbed the East Ridge with my wife, Linda. We had a great time.

Another windy effort in the Bitterroot. The wind must know when I am out there. Saint Joseph, Sweeney, Lolo, East Trapper - they all got me.
