"My buddy Matt and I parked just inside the gate. 5th St. was ok for my Honda Civic, but I wouldn't have gone any further inside the gate. We took the standard route up, following the road for about 2 miles, then heading into the canyon, then up the wash to the saddle west of the peak. From there, we took the west ridge up. The vegetation wasn't as bad as I was expecting. We took our time on the summit and enjoyed the views. From the gate, it was 9.95 miles with 3600 ft. of elevation gain. " — ZachTeich • Mar 9, 2024
"This hike is hard no trail to speak of and heavy bushwhacking. I chose a route that was direct with a lot of class 3-4 scrambling to get out of the brush. I believe it took me 9 hrs." — ryancoburn • May 26, 2021
"Did not do a great job sticking to the wash on the ascent and paid for it with brush. Overgrown for a DPS peak but tame by AZ standards. AZ P2K #31 Complete TR: https://themtsarecalling.com/tipton/" — Christopher • May 11, 2018
"What a Great Mountain, was a bit nervous of Bushwhacking and Route-finding as many Hikers mentioned it but sticking to the Wash leads you up directly into the Saddle without any Bush whatsoever. After that you just cross a small Bush-field before heading up to the Peak.Amazing Views from the Top!! " — Nuernberger • Dec 3, 2015
"Took a variation of the 'West Ridge' route to the peak. There was a LOT of scrub oak and sagebrush along the way. I'm glad I was wearing long pants. Also, we had quite a bit of snow on our way up, which made some of the route a bit more difficult. Still made it up in 3.5 hours & back down in 3." — Kevin • Feb 17, 2012
"i suggested we take a direct approach which was a very bad idea.In the past beating the brush never bothered me too much but this was a real challenge.
There was plenty of snow the last 3oo ft or more which added to the challenge." — ridgeard • Feb 17, 2012
