Peak Guides
HPS has two current documented routes to the
peak. Route 1 is 1 ½ miles round
trip with a total of 600' of gain, and sidehills on a use trail around
an intermediate bump before scrambling up some easy Class 2 rock to the summit.
Route 2 is 1.2 miles and ascends a gully to
a ridge thence to the summit. The Class 2 rock may be easier on Route 2.
