| After looking at it and bypassing it for years, finally climbed it as an add-on to a winter ascent of Castle Peak with SMG. High winds and not much snow...but it was a fun little summit anyway. | |

| This is a nice way to come back from Warren lake and Devil's oven, a kid can bag two peaks coming this direction and do Castle peak as well, making a fine day of it! | |
