| Nice hike with a bit of route finding up the steep slope. Nice views of the nuclear power plant to the north. | ||

| Dundeel | Woolsey Way ![]() Date Climbed: Feb 25, 2011 | |
| This was my last AZ P2k below 4,000 ft. 6 peaks in one week. The primitive road along the fence is surrounded on both sides by wilderness so don't drive off of it. If you are facing Class 3 on the way up, you haven't found the easiest way. | ||

| Nice little peak with a bomb view of the surrounding area. Snow on the Four Peaks and Mazatzals, plus a running Gila River made for a unique vista. The route itself is very straight-forward and should give you no problems. | ||

| Kadee | 5th P2K in 5 days ![]() Date Climbed: Dec 2, 2008 | |
| Camped at the trailhead. Very steep route up and it felt like it was never going to end - the top didn't ever look like it was getting closer until I was standing on top of it. Pretty easy peak besides the steepness and all the prickly plants! Out of the 5 peaks I did, this peak has all the others beat for scrapes, scratches and blood.

| oldadit | Struck oil on Woolsey ![]() Date Climbed: May 4, 2003 | |
| This took a couple tries - on the first I holed the oil pan, and limped back to Tucson leaving a black trail in my wake. The second try was a charm for Nick and I. Picked up some sort of Poison Ivy like rash on my feet after the hike - Woolsey did not go down easy. Saw Roach (Jennifer ?) entry in register. | ||

| surgent | Just kept climbing up... ![]() Date Climbed: Nov 5, 2007 | |
| ...till there weren't no more climbing to do! Had a free day from work to drive out to this unique desert monolith. Wasn't too sure if I was on a 'correct' path, but the breaks in the cliffs always seemed to offer some route when things looked grim. The summit is gorgeous - a flattish garden of teddy-bear cholla. In all, the climbing was sustained low class 3, never too exposed. Had a few cactus run-ins, though. Par for the course. Trip Report, 12/5/2007 | ||

| Looks tough from below, but despite steep slopes, Woolsey's pretty easy. The same volcanic rock that provides good traction is tough on the feet, though. | ||
