You'll need to work for this summit, which is one of the best in the Mazzies, hands down. It isn't boring Ord, it's more difficult than both Catherine and Peeley. Not sure about Mazatzal Peak yet, as I'll hold my opinion until sometime next week. And there's no silly register at the top. Just Ladybugs and one giant bear turd. :-k The Pine Creek Loop and lower Ballantine Trails are 90% burnt. It'll be decades before this area returns to what it once was. The Pipeline Trail is becoming more obscure but still there's evidence of some badass fat tire motorcyclist utilizing it. No water anywhere, but that was expected this time of year. Just right of A-Frame (east of the southern prow) of Whorled Wall is the most direct route to the summit. It's loose in the first third but surprisingly solid through the upper two thirds. There's a huge dead Agave stalk marking the top out. Yeah, it'll eventually fall over but there are several more Agaves growing in the same place that may continue to mark the route.
