Backpacked with group of friends, and talked them into this peak. We dropped our packs at the fork and hiked up to the peak, before dropping down to our overnight destination. The trail is nice, but has a lot of loose rock at the top. Would prob choose a day trip or access from the other side, before a backpacking attempt. The view from the top, definitely worth it!
