I think this peak is known as the Black Mountains Highpoint or Poorman BM after the benchmark. There is already a page for it on SP. This route looks really cool but it definitely travels through private property. The other side of the peak, from the west, is located on BLM land and okay to hike.

Trip Report or Route
Looks like this page would make a nice Trip Report or a Route attached to the existing Mountain page (Poorman BM, as indicated by mountaingazelle). If you are unsuare how to do this, feel free to contact me for assistance.
Thanks guys...I'm going to convert it over to a trip report or route in the next little bit. I'm just curious why I couldn't find Poorman. I searched all over for this peak to make sure I wasn't doing work that hadn't been done. I searched mountains and rocks within 15 miles of Paragonah Utah and it didn't come up---just a bit frustrating.
I was able to locate Poorman BM with the Lat/Lon Map. I already knew the name of this mountain range in that area so I recognized it immediately. The Poorman BM page has coordinates so it was easy to find but mountains without them are more difficult to search for.
