Access
This peak is most easily climbed from the East and the Danskin Peak Lookout Road [(D)(1) on Pages 154-155]. Follow the road until you reach the point where it reaches the ridge crest. There is a gate and the beginning of an ATV trail at this point. This spot is on private property. Descend back down the road a short distance and find a parking spot on public land. There are not many options but there is unlikely to be anyone else parking here.
South Ridge, Class 2
From your parking spot, climb west up to the top of the South Ridge and follow it to the summit.
