Access
Same as for Peak 7220. From Sheep Creek Spring Road, head north on BLM roads that go past Taylor Spring and reach Junction 6450, which sits between Peak 6760 and Peak 7140. Access from the north is blocked by posted private ranch land.
East Ridge, Class 2
The Climb
From Junction 6450 on the connecting saddle between Peak 6760 and Peak 7140, hike west then northwest up BLM-132 to just below the communication towers. Angle left/southwest and climb up over a rocky outcrop then descend west to a minor saddle (55-foot drop). Follow the narrow, rock-and-scrub ridge to quickly reach the cairned summit on the southwest summit hump.
