Climbing and access information for this peak is on Page 345 of the book. Also see the Owyhee Mountains Peaks List for all of the peaks in this range. Updated September 2019.


Turntable Mountain is most easily climbed from either its East or West Ridges from saddles off a gravel road that originates out of Slaughterhouse Gulch, northeast of Silver City, Idaho. A high-clearance 4WD vehicle is recommended. Because this area of the Owhyees is an extremely popular ATV and dirt bike use area, I recommend hiking this peak during the week to avoid ATVs and other motorized traffic. USGS Cinnabar Mountain
