Lincoln County High Point Trip Report
Wyoming Peak
Date: May 28, 1998
Author: Dave Covill
We got up early Thursday and drove west of Big Piney to Wyoming Peak, HP of Lincoln Co.
We were stopped 2 miles short of the TH by deep snow. We had to hike 2 miles to the TH,
then a mile along a lake, then up 2500' in 1.5 miles to the summit.
We never saw a sign of trail anywhere, and bush-whacked the entire way.
Deep snow through woods for 1500' up, then across a broad basin to the base
of the summit ridge. I scrambled up a steep face of scree/snow,
then along a ridge 1/3 mile to the top.
There is a little abandoned shelter on top,
probably an old fire lookout. I ran down the ridge, glissaded the slope,
and snow-shoed out, as the snow was getting very mushy by then.
Our trip took from 8:30 am to 5:30 pm, and we were very dehydrated.
Full sun the whole day, very warm, over 60 F at all times.
