- Fay Peak & First Mother Mountain
- Scrambling
9/7/14 Up west ridge, which has well-defined boot path to near summit. Dropped ~80' east to 1st saddle, descended east staying above steep snow, some loose rock but manageable. Easy traverse on bench ~6100' intersecting trail to Knapsack Pass. Followed boot path to 1st Mother. Lots of ripe huckleberries! Saw 2 goats 1/2 mile off on ridge to false summit of Castle.
