US-60 to Water Canyon, FR-235 to the North Peak trail parking lot east of of South Baldy. Parking lot elevation is about 10,340'. The elevation of North Peak is 9858'. The trail goes up and down so you both gain and lose around 1400 ft. Once you get to North Baldy there's an old 4WD road that wraps around the back side of the summit. There's also a trail going up the westside of the summit but its not easy to spot enroute. I took it on the return.
