from Beaver Meadow
I took the Beaver Meadow trail, after the West River trail to get to Armstrong. From there a did a loop of the Wolf Jaws to get back to St. Huberts. I met some nice hikers, including a woman backpacker who was with me on the summits of Armstrong and Upper Wolf Jaw.

What a view
Did this as part of a loop. Nice sunny day. A few people up on top with us, but still nice and peaceful. Pretty easy peak to check off the list.

Packed, Icy
Did this from Gothics. The Range trail was well packed, no snowshoes are needed, but a couple spots are icy and you will be served well by wearing crampons.

Great Range traverse attempt
Finally, some clear views from the top. So far the Great Range had been coy.
Climbed in 1/06 as part of a Sawteeth/Lower Great Range traverse, and in 5/06 as part of a Great Range traverse from Marcy to WJ Gap. During the 1/06 climb, injured my right hand while glissading. Still hurts from time to time...
Route Climbed: from Gothics Date Climbed: Oct 5 2003
Started at St Huberts, went up Gothics, then down the great range hitting Armstrong, Upper and Lower Wolfjaw. Great fall colors!. Early snow & ice made it kind of treacherous.
Route Climbed: Trail on ridge from Wolf Jaw direction Date Climbed: Feb 16, 1999 and May 25,96
Did 4 new winter summits this day and Upper Wolf Jaw twice. Solo- but hey, it is the Great Range and I had lots of boy scouts up there to break the trails in.
Summer hike was part of my first hike in the 'Dacks
Route Climbed: Weld trail and out by Beaver Meadow Falls Date Climbed: 9/4/04
Cloudy, but still some great views. Wanted to go on to Uwj, but not enough daylight left.Best trip of the year yet. The falls toward the end of the trail was spectacular!!!

Route Climbed: Range Trail from Upper Wolf Jaw Date Climbed: September 25, 2004Second of three, from Upper Wolf Jaw then onto Gothics. Tackled this one with the ROTM gang: Mike, Tom, Mr. Baio, and Chris.
Nice views at the top, and a good spot for lunch. I recommend Triscuts, a pepperoni or smoked sausage stick, and cheese.
