Route Climbed: from St. Mary's Glacier Date Climbed: September 15, 2001
This was a great trip for me, I had never seen St, Mary's Glacier before, it was great to see people skiing and snowboarding in Sept. The tundra crossing was great. Could see how it would be treacherous in a snow storm, easy to lose your way. James Peak summit was cold and windy this day so we didn't stay long.
Route Climbed: East route via St Mary's Glacier Date Climbed: 06-06-2000
Had climbed St Mary's Glacier several times before, even had ice ax practice up there with the Colorado Mountain Club Wilderness Trekking class, but this was the first time we went all the way to the beckoning James Peak. It was a perfect blue sky Spring day with no weather complications. A wonderful spring conditioning hike!

Route Climbed: St Mary's Glacier Date Climbed: Nov. 4, 2001This mountain is a very good conditioning mountain and would be a great snowshoe in the winter.
James has some great views and we were able to see the Flattops Wilderness.
