seanpeckhamon the way to Perkins and back  Sucess!
Date Climbed: Oct 25, 2009

used Vibram Five Fingers and ran as much of the ridge as i could; the bushwhacking slowed us down and it took 3 or 4 hours to do the 9 miles roundtrip.

we saw hunters too; when they asked if i'd seen any deer, i said no, but my wife is on the trail too, so don't shoot her. if i had seen a deer i would certainly not have told him so. glad to have been wearing bright colors.

Looking for something that wasn't going to get rained on, I chose this for a conditioner and soon found that there were a lot of folks in orange with rifles on this mountain. I had orange on as well but no rifle, just my trekking poles. I enjoyed the hike and got off before the rain hit.

The original plan was to climb Mount Timpanogos, the second highest mountain in the Wasatch Mountains and one of the most beautiful mountains in the Rockies. Unfortunately conditions were not ideal since a snowstorm 1-2 days prior dropped over a foot of snow in the high Wasatch.

Because of the snowy conditions up high, we set our sights on the much easier and lower Dale Peak, a minor summit in the Wasatch. Kessler, Shaylee, Kimberly and my father joined me for the climb. Some cousins of the children were supposed to come to, but they decided not to go.

We chose the East Ridge route to the summit. It was a pretty easy route and steep in places, but most of the trail was good although the upper part is slightly overgrown. The entire climb was under cloudy skies.

After enjoying the views while eating lunch at the summit, we headed down. We got back just in time since on the drive home there was some very light rain.

I climbed this peak on the way to Perkins Peak in the mid 1990's.

I decided to do this hike at the last minute since the conditions were dry. Started from Little Mountain Summit. Great views and nice weather.

This is a fun hike and we hit Dale on our way over to Perkins. I really enjoyed this ridge, except for the constant brush.

Nice ridge hike, much easier and different than the Cottonwood and Alpine ridges to the south.

ZeeJayLong ridge walk  Sucess!
Date Climbed: Mar 13, 1999

Started at the end of Benchmark Dr with MM. Climbed the SW ridge of Perkins. The going was slow and painful between the 7160 bump and Perkins. Continued over Dale all the way to Little Mt Summit. Came back the same way until just before Perkins and took the 2nd ridge N of Spring Canyon to Kennedy Dr.

Date Climbed: Jan 23, 2009

Decided to take a short snowshoe up to this summit, very easy, though warmer conditions in the afternoon made the snow fairly sloppy down lower. The views of Salt Lake are fantastic.
