Reaching this summit requires hiking through established park trails and routes that lead into the surrounding mountains. The path varies depending on which side of the mountain you approach from, with some options passing through canyon areas.
A narrow snow channel on the mountain holds snow through the summer months and requires ice axes for safe passage. This feature changes the climbing experience significantly depending on when you visit.
