I've always considered climbing this mountain for the solitude and view. It's nice to see more info on it. SP might be exclusive on this thanks to you. Thanks for adding this often overlooked jewel of the San Juans.
This ones definitely on my to-do-list. When....., I have no idea, I seen from the summit of Sneffles and know the views from there must be excellent. Scott, what kind of vertical is involved from the approach you describe.
Thank you so much for this information. We spend much of the summer at a cabin with a view of Lone Cone from our window and have often wondered about the possibility of climbing Lone Cone. Beautiful pictures. Thanks!
