Labor day hike!
Great trail and very easy hike from oneidas St. trail head, went around from east side, scree all the way up which made the hike that much more difficult. But the veiw was worth all the pain. 2hr,30min. Reno hangover crew!

Hiked up south slope from Freel/Job's Sister notch
My husband Dan and I hiked this peak from Job's Sister. From the summit, Dan snowboarded the (still) huge snowfield on Freel Peak's eastern side.
One more time with Anita, July 14, 2007 There is almost no snow up there right now!
And again on July 20, 2010. After reaching the top I hiked to the top of Job's Sister then went down the ridge to the rim trail. After a snack break I headed down an abandoned fire road, then all the way back to the house. A great day.

Made a loop from Trout Creek to Tahoe Rim Trail to Freel Summit (and Job's Sister) then down the Trout Creek trail. Got off trail near the bottom which made for some extra adventure!

The snow field on the east side made it easier. Saw the only people all day coming down from the summit. Climbed from Faye-Luther trailhead.

Armstrong Pass
Climbed Freel, Jobs Sister, and Jobs from Armstrong Pass
Route Climbed: South side route Date Climbed: January 29, 2006
After pulling sleds down Oneidas St. we benefited from snowmobile trails to reach ~8200' before ever having to carry our packs. Summit day consisted of mucho postholing with snowshoes until we finally reached the ridge. The incredibly low cloud ceiling limited our views, but we could still see into Desolation and down into Carson City. Had there been more time we would have traversed to the summit of Jobs Sister, but the weather and postholing failed to cooperate with that goal!
Route Climbed: South Route from Horse Meadow Date Climbed: 01Nov2005
This was my first time up. Went with Jay and Chris. Beautiful day, but extremely windy on top! South side virtually snow free. North side had 6" to 18" covering the trail. Returned to Horse Meadow via the TRT. Great hike!
Route Climbed: Armstrong Pass Date Climbed: Sept 27, 2005
Ascended via Armstrong Pass on the TRT. It looks like the road that leads to Trout Creek is on private property and as there were trail crews in the area I didn't want to chance it. I descened via Trout Creek and there were people on the private property at Fountain Place. I took an old dirt road leading west to avoid them so as not to get busted.
The weather was really crappy. Foggy and drizzly. The area got about 2-4 inches on new snow the previous night. Needless to say there were no views what-so-ever. I was planning on continuing on to Jobs Sister but couldn't really get excited beacuse of the weather. Maybe next time.
Route Climbed: Armstrong Pass Date Climbed: July, 2000
Made part of my marathon training running up certain mountains at Lake Tahoe when I lived in Incline Village. This trip included trail runners and tons of water. I also napped Job's Sister on the same run. Tahoe has some of the best trail running anywhere in the world. Cheers!
