To reach the summit of this point, you must possess basic rock climbing skills since there are two scrambling spots—one at the valley basin and another at the very end, featuring a 10-foot wall with plenty of holds. Wearing non-slip shoes is recommended for the scramble. However, the effort is well worth it, as reaching the top rewards you with breathtaking views of the Superstition Wilderness.

Hiking

Start early to take advantage of the shade in the valley. Be prepared for a lot of rock scrambles in the later half of the route. Also most of the elevation gain in the back section. I would recommend hiking (I use cheap weight lifting) gloves. All that said, the effort is well worth it. The views up and down are phenomenal. And if you go on the weekend look for Flatiron Jim
