Winter Scramble / Not-so-serious routes around Pyramid / Pinnacle / Paul Bunyan's / Colonial?

I'm looking for a winter / spring outing in this neck of the woods that is sufficiently mellow enough to be done unroped, and done in a long day from the road.   Probably not on skis.   I know about hard routes around here, but other stuff not so much.  Suggestions?   Looks like Ruby Mountain across the way is mellow and may fit the bill.

Pyramid is a mellow walk up the south side after you wrap around from the climber's path.  Quite a grunt in a day, but doable. 

Don't overlook Sourdough.  It's a great outing that doesn't have anyone on it in the snowy time of year.  A steep snowy hike pretty much.

Also, Davis Peak can be done without rope.  There is a steep step that you may not like, depending on your comfort level.

All of the above have avalanche issues in the winter/spring so be careful!
