Camped at Forks. Made a lot of sense to go up this peak. While the view was good, the outing was pretty crappy. Not a fun "scramble". Also it's rated difficult but is definitely moderate at most, used my poles the whole time. Lots of steep, but never difficult. Got creative on descent and linked up nice scree and avoided the worst of the loose steeps, but added sidehilling instead. Better to go down than expected. Can't say I'd recommend this one for any reason other than the view. One of my least favs so far unfortunately.
