The Black Tower is located due east of Cabin Creek Peak and just south of Crimson Lake in the Tango Peaks. On my two trips into the area, other than photographing it, I completely ignored The Black Tower. Given the fine climbing that I found on Cabin Creek Peak, I am surprised that I did not even do a recon. The peak has fine lines and I believe the only routes on it are Class 5 but this is all speculation. Look at the photo and judge for yourself. USGS Knapp Lakes
