Jack Beard and Al Hofmeister recently climbed it - they report finding a rap station on the summit - so the first ascent is unknown.

Damn, now I have a bunch of photo captions to edit.

They posted some photos on the GMS Facebook page and answered the question regarding a first ascent otherwise not many details. Hopefully they will do a complete write-up for the GMS Journal.

I checked their facebook page and didn't see anything. I did find some pictures on Al Hofmeister's facebook page though. So now I'm a stalker.

The GMS has a Facebook page that anyone can view. The GMS also has a Facebook group for members only. The photos and info is on the GMS group page. They do report a rap station on the summit.
