Nice half-day hike / scramble from Elizabeth Lake trailhead. All three summits were fun.

Great views, beautiful day. Chatted with park ranger atop north summit.

ozarkmacTurned away 2x!

Twice I drove up from the Bay Area to climb Unicorn. Twice I got to the exposed Class 4 move. Twice I turned back. My wife and I returned later to make the false summit and take in awesome views.

Bring a short 30m rope if you want to protect the summit or if you are brave free solo...

Worked our way up the west face. Ended up soloing a pitch and a half of low to mid fifth. Nice summit views.

Date Climbed: Jul 7, 2008

Not difficult. Left TH past 5:30pm and scrambled up it along with Althuski. Only one real class 4 part. Not hard, but you want to be comfortable trusting both hands to the same rock edge to shimmy a little.

Andrew WinberryHappy Birthday  Sucess!
Date Climbed: Jul 4, 2008

Celebrated the evening of the fourth of July with my cousin Aaron on the summit of Unicorn Peak. Headed up past Elizabeth Lake and then up to the ridge between Cockscomb and Unicorn, then north along the ridge to the Unicorn. All three summits are nice though the northernmost is a classic. The vantage point is exceptional looking down on the Meadows. I wanted to cast off and soar down to the Tuolumne River like a pterodactyl, but didn't.

Fun little scramble up the far right (north) edge of the East Face, then a short traverse south to the summit. We continued on to Cockscomb, which was also a fun scramble.

The talus heap on the way from Cockscomb wasn't as bad as it looked. Nice views to complete the traverse.

Date Climbed: Jul 19, 2003

I was only 9 and my brother 7 but I still made it quite a way up the east slope. Stopped few 600-700 feet below the top. We were not ever intending to get very far past Elizabeth Lake.

Date Climbed: Aug 5, 2006

Hiked up from our campsite in Tuolomne Meadows via Elizabeth Lake with Brian, Amaryah, and Chase. Outstanding views and a good work out scrambling up form the lake. A great way to adjust to the altitude and the exposure to heights before several other hikes to follow during our stay.
