| jajohnson | First 11k. ![]() Date Climbed: Sep 4, 2008 | |
| Soloed over an afternoon. Loop from Cecret Lake up the west ridge and down the east ridge/Castle route. I saw no one above and few below the lake, not surprising for a weekday. First time I've summitted anything, having just moved here from Oklahoma. | ||

| Pretty hike, stops near Cecret Lake. Descent down the saddle between Devil's Castle and SugarLoaf rather steep. | ||

| vanman798 | After Alta Closed ![]() Date Climbed: Apr 26, 2008 | |
| Skinned up from the Grizzly parking lot the weekend after Alta closed for the 2008 season. It took less than 2 hours to summit. Skied down Devils Castle (nice powder). Was on the peak for 45 minutes or so; the round trip took under 3 hours. | ||

| seth@LOKI | Would be a nice ski ![]() Date Climbed: Aug 13, 2007 | |
| Hiked to Castle from here. I've skied the Devil's Castle traverse. A couple couloirs from the summit through the cliffs looked good dry. Maybe next year. | ||

| Bassoon | Fun Day Out ![]() Date Climbed: Jul 28, 2007 | |
| Camped out in the saddle meadow between Devil's Castle and Sugarloaf. Hiked up Sugarloaf to wake up and get warm, then came back and finished off Devil's Castle. Saw a huge moose on the way down- it was a good morning. | ||

| nebben | another 11er ![]() Date Climbed: Jul 21, 2007 | |
| Climbed with Moogie737 just after reaching the top of Baldy. We saw a bunch of runners in some sort of foot-race that were traversing from Hidden Peak, over Baldy, then down to the Germania saddle and then down Mineral Basin. It looked like fun! | ||

| LonePeakFreak | From Devil's Castle ![]() Date Climbed: Jun 30, 2007 | |
| Caught it on the way back from Devil's Castle. Only took about 10 minutes to summit from the saddle between the two. Incredible views all around. | ||

| seanpeckham | my first peak ever! ![]() | |
| Twice; first time I was 12 years old, and dragged my frightened mother up (who is terrified of heights) by telling her "I think it gets easier from here on up" -- fortunately, it was a small enough mountain that we had summitted by the time she figured out I was just making that up. Sep 8, 2007 revisited as part of the Bullion Divide route. | ||

| My 2nd time at the summit. Alta closed for skiing last week, so today it was mountaineers and die-hard skiers hiking up the slopes. From the east end of the Alta road parking lot Brent and I hiked to the summit in 1+40, including stops. The descent took less than an hour. Stunning views in all directions at the top. Three days later I hiked once again to the summit after topping out on Mt. Baldy, 3/4 mile to the west. July 14th climbed it for the 4th time, this time from Baldy summit, taking 32 minutes from summit to summit. July 21st did it again, just like one week ago. Habit forming, I guess. Climbed again on 8-7-07 as part of a long ridge run from Devil's Castle to Haystack. Seventh time on top part of a long ridge hike beginning at the south Superior ridge and ending at the Snowbird tram. Aargh! 8th time 9-19-08 from lower Alta parking lot. #9 7-20-10 W/ ZeeJay from Albion Basin. Bagged Baldy, too. Quick way to get 2,000' of e.g. at high altitude. #10 3-16-12 Solo. Wanted a calendar winter ascent; used Alta Ski Resort route from base of Albion lift. Nasty winds made things harder than they should have been. | ||

| Nice hike after doing the AF Twins the day before. The wildflowers and moose were out in force. I wanted to hang out on top for a while but I got spooked by clouds coming over AF Twins and Hidden Peak. It was clearly raining down towards Provo. | ||

| This a nice enjoyable summit, you get some altitude without the hassle of a long approach. It is a good one to take kids on or family members that won't do harder summits. | ||

| Did this nice, easy hike with my wife on a lazy Sunday. Started at the Catherine Pass parking area, hiked to the saddle between Baldy and Sugarloaf, went up the east ridge, came down the north side to Cecret Lake. Nice little loop, and great views for such an easy 11er. | ||
