- [TR] Huckleberry Mountain - The Trail 11/30/2019 December 5, 2019Trip: Huckleberry Mountain - The Trail Trip Date: 11/30/2019 Trip Report: In perhaps the longest shoulder season in 43 years what is a man to do?

- [TR] Lennox Mountain - Goat Basin Ice Climbs FAIL 11/30/2019 December 1, 2019Trip: Lennox Mountain - Goat Basin Ice Climbs FAIL Trip Date: 11/30/2019 Trip Report: TLDR: the approach is pretty heinous without snow coverage.

- [TR] Colfax Peak - Cosley-Houston 11/10/2019 November 11, 2019Trip: Colfax Peak - Cosley-Houston Trip Date: 11/10/2019 Trip Report: Not going to do a long TR here since there are plenty of TRs on the Cosley-Houston. This will just be a quick update on conditions for those interested. First off, I was wrong when I posted a week or two ago that the approach […]
