Route Climbed: Bull-of-the-Woods Trail Date Climbed: May 11, 2002We climbed Walter on the way to Wheeler Peak. There were some extremely psycadellic snow formations on the way up caused by Wind & melt. Early may was a good to to visit Walter because of the lack of people on the mountain during this time of year.

Route Climbed: Bull-of-the-Woods Trail, up and down Date Climbed: July 9, 2003I initially thought - and hoped - that Mount Walter was Wheeler Peak. Nice place, though, to pause before heading to New Mexico's highpoint.
