"A 3-Peaker day today. Leaving from Dawson Saddle, climbed past Throop to summit Mt Burnham first (then over to Mt Hawkins then finishing with Throop). The PCT that connects the 3 is super-easy to follow, but the trail from PCT to the Burnham summit can barely be called a trail... just aim for the highest point and climb." - Mount Burnham, marc, Jul 22, 2018

The PCT that connects the 3 is super-easy to follow, but the trail from PCT to the Throop summit, coming from Mt Hawkins can barely be called a trail... just aim for the highest point and climb. The trail to the summit from the Mt Burnham direction is much easier to find/follow." - Throop Peak, marc, Jul 22, 2018

"Rest week climb after my recent 12ers attempts. This one is a short drive from Boise and has good prominence, a gentle (and somewhat boring) road to the top, and expansive summit views. Quite toasty out today and lots of ATVs and motor bikers were making the most of the clear weekend weather." - Pilot Peak, robkleffner, Jul 21, 2018

"We started out around 12:30, took us a bit to find the trail head, as we took a wrong road. Once we'd parked, we took the Doublehead ski trail to the summit of North Doublehead. The trail felt longer than it was, but that may have been due to the sun and heat. It was moderately steep, I would say, which also makes for slow going for me on the uphill. The cabin was unoccupied and locked, so we peeked in the windows. Looks like a nice place to spend a night. There was a group of people sitting at the overlook area having lunch, so we just snapped a picture and headed to the col an" - North Doublehead, Hufflepuff, Jul 21, 2018
