This peak offers stunning views that overlook White Lake, Cold Springs, and you can make out Stead airfield in the distance. Looking south you can also find Peavine Peak. The trail follows service/recreational roads that are wide for large parties and animals. While the view is worth the trek, the elevation and incline grade is rated as strenuous, so pack plenty of snacks and water if you need to!

Hiking

Done this twice. Make sure to hike on a cool day or early in morning. It's steep at the last part of climb. So worth it!!
