The summit of Hiram Peak (9796 ft / 2986 m) lies only a few hundred feet within the Carson-Iceberg Wilderness and about one mile, and a thousand feet above Highland Lakes on the ridge separating the deep canyons of Highland and Arnot Creeks. Its summit offers an excellent view of these drainages, along with the impressive pyramid shaped summits of Airola Peak and Dardanelles Cone.
While most of the wilderness area sees very few visitors, Hiram’s close proximity to Highland Lakes brings a few visitors during summer, and snowmobiles in winter.
Class 2 climb June to November. AT ski climbs require about 20 mile snow approach by snowmobile or overnight snow camping tour from the Hwy4 closure gate SnoPark (SnoPark permits at Bear Valley XC resort).
CA SR4 is closed to cars from the first snowfall (typically early November) to June. CA SR4 from the west: Turn right (south) on Highland Lakes Road (8N01) about 16 miles past Bear Valley. summitpost.org/hiram-peak/150618
