Climbing and access information for this peak is on Page 111 of the book. I previously grouped this peak with the the Grass Mountain Subrange of the Salmon River Mountains. However, after hiking the all of the peaks and discussions with local climbers I removed it from the the subrange. Updated February 2021
Granite Peak is capped by a fire lookout. A good trail leads to its lower western summit and the staffed lookout. The actual summit is found at the east end of the summit block. USGS Brundage Mountain
