| harbor | Red Castle backpack  Date Climbed: Jul 20, 2012 | |
| trip with my sister. We bagged this peak a few hours before a weekend long thunderstorm. Was amazed at how many people hike and backpack up Smith's Fork with no idea of where they are going or where they are. Anywho... great weekend minus the lightning and hail. Mine and my sister's 2nd Utah 13er. | |

| W/ friend John P. Lewis hiked the r/t from China Meadows on a bluebird day, a rarity in the Uintas, at least for me. It was the highest that John had ever been (unpressurized!) and his 1st 13er. At the TH at 7 a.m. it was a chilly 32 degrees. | |

| Starting from China Meadows, I climbed Wilson Peak and Mt. Powell in a day. On the way up I went by Red Castle Lake, climbed Wilson Peak, descended towards the Smiths Fork pass, and up Mt. Powell. Total distance was around 33 miles, which took 12 hours 35 minutes. | ||

| seanpeckham | glad I picked this one Date Climbed: Jul 20, 2009 | |
| I haven't done too many of the 13ers yet, but I'm glad I picked this one for my third. The views are some of the best I've seen anywhere, and the climb was fun, too. Got to do a standing glissade (yes, on snow, not scree) on the way down. Did Kings the day before. | |

| Started at Center Park. Hiked the 5 12000 footers on the west side of Garfield Basin. Then did this one and then East Wilson. Loved the view and the long summit ridge. | |
