4 Peaks

Post by azhiker96 »

Has anyone visited all four peaks at 4 Peaks? If so, did you day hike it or ultralight backpack it? I've been to Brown's Peak and the peak just south of it but want to visit the other two as well. I've been waiting for the snow to clear before attempting this one.
Thanks,
George

Hi George!

This is Matt. Obviously you know that I have been to the same 2 peaks as you, but I've been waiting to find someone to attempt all 4 in a day. I believe it is possible to do it as a day hike if you get a predawn start. If you are looking for a partner in this endeavor, I feel that I am more than ready.

How did you get to the second peak and how hard was it? It looks like a neat one to do.
Mountains are there to be hiked!

Hi Matt, I'm thinking about an attempt in late May so there should be no snow or snowmelt to worry about. I wouldn't want to make those scrambles under wet conditions. Plus, the weather should be mild enough then that a small pack would suffice if we do end up overnighting it. I need to drag out my topo but I thought there was a circumference trail around the East side that we could use for the return trip. Or, we might start that way and work our way to the North, peak by peak. The cut between the second and third peak looks pretty deep. I expect we'll see a lot of elevation changes there.

Steven, we took a chute down the south side of Brown's peak to the saddle between it and the second peak. Then it was trail finding up the side of the second peak. We stayed on the Roosevelt Lake side of the traverse as it looked easier. The other side looked like it would require wings.
