"Very quiet, route to the actual summit is not really indicated, there’s several ways to get up. It’s definitely not “just” hiking. Some alpine style rock climbing/scrambling to get to the peak." — SolidBeat • Feb 2, 2022

"From Calle Majanicho steady walk onto col between the crater and neighbouring hill. Then took the lesser of the incling paths to the more northernly side. Impressive scale of crater. Then down something like a path direct to col and up Colorado and continuing down on same line. Descent very loose and dusty." — vygodski • Feb 13, 2020

"Driving up to this from the south, past the two big ranges, and only having a rough idea of it, other mountains were speculatively raised to its holy mountain status. But when this one did ultimately appear, it relegated them once more, as it is a fine looking thing - a slightly different colour to its surroundings - stout and majestic. Having heard it was a popular destination, I anticipated a good solid path. But that wasn't to be and this presented a bit of a scramble at times, often on pretty lose ground. The path from the ruined buildings was marked by an aging sign saying the route was not permissible. I took it nonetheless and then got up the ridge on the northern side. Explored the summit and the remaining part of the ridge. Then descended down the large slabs SW. Would have been better to ascend this way directly. " — vygodski • Feb 13, 2020

"From the obvious car park by the waterboard building. Quite steep initially, then a little detour onto the first high point and via a clear path up Talahija then rejoining main route. Thereafter a good 3-3km trek up a steady incline on ridge on a good track. Saw ravens and goats. At the cone proper a twisty climb but good path. Explored a little alternative routes on to some of the other hills here, but couldn't see anything that didn't look a bit hairy. Clear at summit, far reaching views. Really windy at times. Back same route. A little tedious having few alternative options. Worth doing. Took me 4 hours there and back with 15minutes rest and anotther 15 minutes looking off the path for options.

"Climbed this to get a taste for the terrain and conditions. Went from roundabout at south, up to the col slightly east from path marked on map, which I didn't actually see. At the top of the col many people have used the stones to write their names on the floor. Quite cute. I didn't, being a bore. From here along the ridge to the top. At the top was visited by three or four ground squirrels who are obviously very used to people having a snack when they reach the top. I didn't have anything to give them, but just getting my water out of my bag had them bounding all over it. Then descended to the east, this was much steeper and harder going. Don't recommend it when there is the easier route to the west. Very barren, arid and dusty. Will clearly be pretty breezy on the higher hills." — vygodski • Feb 7, 2020
