"After reading some trip reports about trespassing issues I decided to call the Carson National Forest ranger station before going. They said there were not any issues in climbing the peak. To be sure, I asked to be connected with someone a little higher up and they said the same thing, that there were not any issues in climbing the peak. I am sure that there are some situations circling the peak that need to be handled with respect, but for the most part anyone that wants to climb this peak can do so without concern.
I tried to get numerous friends and family members to go with me on this hike but to no avail, so I defaulted to my 2 year old wirehaired fox terrier Captain. His brother Major gets car sick and threw up in the SUV both ways on his first and last trip. I do not trust either dog to stay with me like my last peakbagging dog Daisy, but this hike had lots of open space so I felt it was a great place for training. He was so excited to go he moaned with happiness.
I pondered different ways to hike the peak and considered hiking in directly from the west, which would have been shorter than the route I took, but coming in directly from the south seemed the most interesting ..." — Phil-Robinson • Jun 28, 2017
