"Not in the mood for a very long hike, but in the mood for some scrambling and cross-country, I opted for a shorter hike from Walker Pass. I saw two peaks on the ridge right over Walker Pass, Peak 6366 and Peak 6529, both listed on the maps. I didn't even know the peak listed as Peak 6529 was even named as Proposal Peak until I came here to log it! So what I did is climb the PCT from Walker Pass up and around the base of 6366, gradually ascending and then hit some switchbacks zig-zagging up the east slope underneath the ridge between 6366 and Proposal Peak. After the last switchback, I continued for about 1/5 mile, and then I started climbing westbound up the steep, loose slope cross-country aiming for a notch on the ridge closer to Proposal Peak. At the ridge, I then headed north-northwest up the bouldery, class 2 slope and made it to Proposal Peak (Peak 6529 on my video). The summit register was impossible to open as it was rusted shut!! LOL. Then, I scrambled back down to the ridge and headed south, again cross-country along the ridge, and then went over a false peak about 6,280'+, down a small dip, and then up the easier (less class-2!!) slope to Peak 6366 at the south en..." — brianpowell • Apr 3, 2022
"A snowstorm hit the area and I decided I _really_ wanted photos of the area with snow. I had always looked at this peaklet whenever I hiked up Walker's Pass and always thought "not the tallest, but I bet it has a great view!", and it turns out not only was a right but that there was a register of people who agreed with me already on the peak! The name was suggested by a couple who did their proposal there and climb it every year still in love. It seems most find the name appropriate." — Irrationalist • Nov 24, 2013
