Route Climbed: Southeast Ridge Date Climbed: Feb 23, 1994
I was at Big Sky with friends for a week of fabled Montana powder. Unfortunately it hadn't snowed in a week when we got there, and no new snow while there. Hard, crappy skiing for the most part. So I took a day to climb Lone Mtn, though didn't use the lifts. One can take the service roads around towards the south side (seems to be a snowmobilers paradise there), then it's easy to get onto the Southeast Ridge. I carried a snowboard to the summit, but didn't ski down the upper part of the mountain (after I watched another boarder biff it for 1,000ft on the hard snow and nearly killed himself).
Route Climbed: SW ridge Date Climbed: 01 August 2000
Ducked out of a less than exhilarating conference session and had a great trail run with Abdul Cherkaoui up through the ski area, through
the big central bowl under the summit gondola, and up smooth SW ridges on gravel, talus, and blocks. About 2.5 hours to summit, 1 hour down, and some beautiful wild flowers en route.
