I've enjoyed the ID peak pages you've added - inspires me to go back to Idaho in the early summer (also the fact that I think ID gets more stable weather earlier in the season than the Pacific NW). What do you think is the "normal" weather in the Sawtooths say around Memorial Day - good chance of catching clear skies? PNW usually sucks on that weekend weatherwise :(
The weather is awesome that time of year . . . as a whole I have found the winters to be kind of gray, the summer's to be too hot but the fall and spring are great. If I had to estimate I would say below freezing at night, but 70's during the day (Especially the Sawtooth's)
You will still encounter considerable snow from about 8,000 up, but the trailheads are usually in great shape. Memorial day I am going to Colorado, but if it is another time, let me know.
On another note, if you need to get that info for the Sawtooth's (from that old website) shoot me a email nicstover@yahoo.com and I will ask Sean next time we go climbing.
Sounds like you've edited a bit. It would be nice if you put a few more pictures on the front there. It would be interesting if you added some history, since you have the book.

Everything is here and good. I wouldn't mind knowing the elevation gain of the east ridge route, but it appears not a lot of people list that kind of information.
Unfortunately, we left both sets of hiking poles around 11,200-11,300 in elevation & could not locate them on the way down...reward if returned...please respond to this note...we live in Boise...txs

Untitled CommentHey Nic - I got them to add the Lemhi Range as a mountain range category if you want to add Diamond to this.
