The road to the trailhead was muddy and a little icy. The hike from the pass was snowy but not too bad in winter. Pinyon Peak via the southwest ridge was a nice route.
Last year I did Lime choosing it over Pinyon because of building thunderstorms. Went back to scale the great Pinyon. Carrying both kids was a killer (pack weight up to 70 lbs now). Kids were having so much fun they didn't want to leave summit. So I cleared the summit area of dead wood, rebuilt the summit carin with a 10 foot pole sticking up and built a rock lined trail the last 100 feet. Also saw tracks in snow on top, turns out to be Wasatchvoyage one day before! http://www.willhiteweb.com/tintic_mountains/pinyon/lime_peak_234.htm
