| Perfect conditions. Not a cloud in the sky the view from the top is definitely worth the bushwhack. And it is a serious bushwhack :) Both lakes were completely frozen over and the glisade descent was awesome took me 30 minutes to get back to the lake from the summit :) | |

| Scrambling Man | Killer Views Date Climbed: Jul 6, 2008 | |
| By chance we ran into Sper "sprosseda" at the point where you leave Redfish Creek trail. It was fun to have him join us for the trip and hear about his travels in Idaho and the Tetons. Great views of the Tooths. | |

| Climbed with SP Scrambling Man, his wife, and dog. Great 360 view from summit of course as most know. Short day trip with steep, cliffy, first half bushwack. Easy sand and snow slopes above 9,000 ft lake. Cool mountain (be careful on slabby cliffs though). Broad sandy summit you could camp on. | |

| splattski | South Gulley/East ridge Date Climbed: Jun 9, 2007 | |
| Beautiful day. Almost made the round trip from the boat dock without seeing a single other person... finally saw two people about 15 minutes up the trail. On a sunny Saturday! Some crappy snow near the summit- deep, unconsolidated slush. Otherwise, great conditions. Trip report | |

| SawtoothSean | Route Climbed: South Gulley from Redfish Creek Date Climbed: July 12, 2004 | |
| One of the best views in the Sawtooths. A pretty straightforward scramble up from Redfish Creek to an amazing tarn lake nestled just south of Braxon. Then up to the above ridge where the Rotten Monolith (very prominent from Stanley) is viewed. The summit is very inconspicous | |

| This mountain is all about the views. If you wanna scout out some climbs in the area, climb this one first. Its longer than appears on the TOPO but sure is worth it! | |
