Peak 5793 sits east of the Salmon River and is just southeast of the junction of US-93 and ID-75 south of Challis. Due to extensive private property in this area, Peak 5793 is difficult to reach on public land. This climb is entirely on BLM land so stay on course and carry a land management map with you.

Cross a wide, dry gully to reach the broad southeast side of Peak 5788. Head north up onto the crest of the southeast ridge. Follow the easy ridge northwest and skirt the right/north side of a ridge hump to reach a minor saddle. Skirt northwest then west past some rocky humps to the right/north then follow a ridgeline southwest to the summit.
