| Climbed on way back from doing Harney Peak. Bit of scrambling at the top was a good change of pace. Too bad the trees up at the top were all dead from the pine beetles, that part was not easy on the eyes.. | ||

| Maybe the best short hike (besides Harney) and best summit/views in the Black Hills. | ||

| Did this with my boys. Weather has warmed up, so it was finally a shorts day. Great views of Harney Peak and surrounding Hills. | ||

| Harney Peak is beautiful, but this little mountain was the highlight of the day! The scrambling and route-finding was a nice departure from trail-walking, and the views from the top of Harney Peak and Cathedral Spires were jaw-dropping. Love it! Super-windy up top, though. | ||

| climber555 | Alone in winter ![]() Date Climbed: Jan 10, 2009 | |
| Hiked from Sylvan Lake to Little Devils Tower many times, but last winter was the most extreme. A foot of solid packed snow made for an easy hike, but it started snowing and blowing on top. Got lost on top and saw only cliffs every where I looked until I finally found my footprints and got out of there. Hiking the Black Hills in the winter is awesome. | ||

| Originally had planned to hike Harney Peak, but decided to do this hike instead due to time constraints. Not really knowing what to expect, we were shocked at the amazing views from the top. Well worth the hour and half hike! | ||

| Via the No. 4 trail branch. We climbed this after descending from Harney Peak. Great views. Fun scrambling. The route is marked all the way. | ||

| Doublebagged this one along with Harney. Wanted to have an uncluttered summit to stand on and this fit the bill nicely. Short and steep, but worth the effort with some fun scrambling and bouldering at the summit! | ||

| The Little Devils Tower trail head was our starting point. We passed people going both ways on the trail. It took us about 40 minutes to get to the top. When we arrived at the top, we were treated to some great views of the clouds rolling in from the east, eventually obscuring our view of many parts of the valley below. Our next stop was Harney Peak. | ||

| My wife and I climbed this Black Hills beauty by mistake in July of 1998. Missed the turnoff to Harney Peak! We were still very rewarded with great views and a colony of lady bugs on the summit rocks. Great way to cap off a trip to the Black Hills. | ||
