"As an adolescent I aspired to lasting fame, I craved factual certainty, and I thirsted for a meaningful vision of human life - so I became a scientist. This is like becoming an archbishop so you can meet girls."

Great peakClimbed from Horse Creek Canyon (through the notch, up Glacier Col) with SMG on a fine one day climb. The rock is fun and not too hard, with just enough exposure to make it interesting. Highly recommended backcountry gem, with a very scenic and spectacular view.

Nice climbSuccessful on the second attempt. We used ropes for the part that's described as low-mid 5th class. And rappelled from a nice rock flake. Can't see how anybody could think it's 3rd class only.
Summit block is easier than it looks.
Skied down from Glacier col and Cleaver notch afterwards.

Great climbClimbed the NW face and downclimbed steeper W face; superb rock on route, with some loose rock danger on ledges. We found great conditions in Glacier Col from recent snowstorm, but climbing over the bulge near the top of the Col was a little dicey (couple inches powder over plastered rubble)
