Sawteeth, Gothics, Armstrong, Upper Wolfjaw 7/26/13

Maple sausage egg at the corner store and two chocolate chip cookies for breakfast. Plan was to hike Sawteeth. Parked at St. Huberts at 8AM and walked up the road to ausable lake and headed up Sawteeth. Nice waterfall a little way past ausable lake. Cool in the AM and sort of cool once I got up to Sawteeth. Arrived at about 10:30 so decided to keep going to Gothics. Steep hike to top of Pyramid peak. Nice views West from there and good view of Basin? with a lot of slides. Then up to Gothics. Looked at the map and decided to go over Armstrong and Upper Woldjaw before heading down. It was only an extra mile round trip to go over lower wolfjaw but decided it was time to head down. Went down the West River trail which has more waterfalls and runs next to the river for a couple of miles. Nice trail and I stayed on it right to the ausable club so avoided the road past the gate. Ran into people from lower NY state and hiked with them for about 1/2 mile near sawteeth. They were doing the 46 peaks, about 1/2 way through. This was a Ken only trip. A nice one well worth doing again. No camera... a few pics from internet that give you the basic idea...
