"Got tight last night on absinthe and did knife tricks. Great success shooting the knife into the piano. The woodworms are so bad and eat hell out of all furniture that you can always claim the woodworms did it."

Hot but Easy Route to the TopWe had a late start so the heat hit us pretty early, but this is a great direct route up the peak. The ridge trail is fairly easy to follow.

Happy Halloween on Box ElderIt was terribly cold on top. I'm just glad I always prepare for the worst. I ended up sporting my gloves and three layers. I would say it was probably 20 degrees on top; maybe colder with high winds. There was already a nice cornice formed as the wind scoured the summit ridge. This is a very pretty area. I would love to come back in the winter. Thanks Box Elder!

Great trail to Box ElderHiked a good portion of the trail in the dark on the way up to Box Elder Peak. Once again a beautiful hike from Community Flats. My preferred route to the summit!
