Helm of Shiprock by syoung Superstition Peak 4861 - The Helm of Shiprock
This peak looms to the northeast of Flatiron. It is craggly and full of hoodoos. It is a bit of a scramble to reach the top, but the views are pretty incredible; a top-down view of Flatiron, Peak 5057, Weaver’s Needle, Picketpost, Four Peaks, and the Superstition Wilderness. This is now my favorite scenic location in the Superstitions. To get up to this peak first you must travel up towards Flatiron. Whatever route you prefer is fine as long as you make it to the second saddle. When you reach this saddle, if you go straight and to the left, you will head to 5024; if you go right, you will proceed to Flatiron, but you will head up in a direction a little bit between these two.
