| surgent | What Dartmouth Hiker Said  Date Climbed: Oct 3, 2009 | |
| In good conditions this is a moderate to tough day hike mostly along open ridges but brushy and rocky enough to keep things slow... then you hit the really thick stuff at about 7,000 feet. In white-out conditions we relied on the GPS and compass to get to the top and especially on the descent. Without visual cues to guide us down, we started down two wrong ridges before the trusty compass and GPS set us straight again. The weather probably added 1.5-2 hours to our time overall. My thanks to Dartmouth Hiker for the company! | |

| Dartmouth Hiker | Bushwhacking insanity! Date Climbed: Oct 3, 2009 | |
| Climbed with Scott Surgent on a day that started out undercast, ended overcast, and was mostly "cast" in the middle. The bushwhacking was among the toughest I've done, and travel past Pt. 6800' is surprisingly disorienting in the clouds. Bring map, compass and GPS if there's any chance you'll be clouded in. | |

| oldadit | A Coronado 12 Date Climbed: Feb 18, 1996 | |
| This peak was on a list (of course) of the Coronado Forest units. Bushwacked up east/NE ridge with my trail loving wife, who kinda tolerated the brush & rocks. | |

| Parked at the trailhead on the Stronghold Canyon West trailhead of the Cochise trail (#279). Hiked up a rocky drainage to within 0.4 mi. of the summit, then bushwhacked up a steep, brushy slope to the top. | |
