Northwest Ridge, Class 2
From your parking spot, wade the East Fork Pahsimeroi River and hike up the Breitenbach Pass Trail for about a half mile. Leave the trail and head up the West Fork until you are below the West Face of the peak. Walk up and follow the base of the cliffs northward until you find weaknesses near their twist to the east. Work up through breaks in the cliffs to easier slopes that lead to the Northwest Ridge. Follow the ridge to the summit. Continue past the summit for a view of a natural arch in the convoluted ridge that connects with No Regret Peak.
