Solo trip. The ascent from the Wolf Jaw col is a very steep 1/2 mile....at least that's what I remember.

Winter summit
Took deer brook trail, to white trail...breaking the whole way. So it took a lot longer than expected to travel the 4.5 miles. Still made it though, pretty decent views.
Most memorable time was in the height of black fly season; I waited for other members of party for 2 hours, nearly went crazy. They came back to find me running through the woods, wearing a poncho wrapped tight around my body.

My first time to the Adirondacks. Very cool area - much different from the desert I live in. :)

Rt. 73 (Deer Brook) -> Hedgehog -> L. Wolfjaw -> Wolf Jaw Lean-to
Hiked in solo with full pack at 4:30am while it was still dark. Sun was up before I made it to Hedgehog. I had meant to take the more direct route that avoids the long trip past Snow, Rooster Comb, and over Hedgehog, but I made a wrong turn and caused myself a lot more work and lost time. High Peak #9.

Lower Wolf Jaw Mountain
Climbed with Upper Wolf Jaw via Range Trail from the Ausable Club. Decent views of the Great Range and a cooling breeze were the rewards after this hike on a hot late-August day.

Route Climbed: From John's Brooke
Great Mountain. We got lucky and spotted a Pine Martin up on the summit. That was a first.
I climbed this with my father over Thanksgiving in 1996 (give or take a year). The only thing I remember about this peak is its name.

Slide Skiing
My first time out in the BC. It was a fun experience and i learned a lot about BC Skiing. Bennies slide is defiantly worth the effort to ski. Didn't get up very far due to avi. danger but a great day out non the less.

This was my first trip to the Dack's. Hiked with a buddy and his brother-in-law in fresh now. Great intro to the mountains, was an effort in the snow.

The last of 5 peaks in a day. Tiring, but a sense of accomplishment. Wet, muddy, slick but nice hiking. 11/46
