Trip Leader: Jim Semmelroth Participants: Candy Hartman, Peter DiFurio, Cathy Semmelroth, and me It was raining at 9 am so we didn’t go to Petty Mountain. We reassembled for an afternoon walk up toward Dean Stone on the new trail. Starting at Sousa, we went up about 1600’ in 3.8 miles. Then we had to …
This hike went pretty much as described. Like we thought last year, the first left near a largerock outcropping is the Calf Creek North loop – probably. We also found that there are a lot more junctions, and the upper roads don’t seem to jive with the routes shown on the Trailforks website. But, my …

Participants: Steve Schombel, Julie Kahl While waiting for any “Maybe-s” to show up at the bar at Lolo Hot springs, Steve and I went over and cleared the snow off the “sitting-on logs” by the fire pit, it was starting to get sunny and we hoped they’d dry off. No one showed, it turned out …
January 2, 2022 Saddle between Deer Creek and Miller Creek This was a hybrid trip with Thursday Night Mountain Bike group members and Rocky Mountaineers members, so I didn’t require Rocky Mountaineers membership. We left the Pattee Canyon Picnic area parking lot at about 12:15 pm and skied up the steeper trail headed south. It …
