We couldn't really find any reliable information on this summit, although we did find some information that it was possible without special gear. So we turned the day into a recon hike. Much of the day consisted of scrambling and climbing over, under, and around large and small boulders on steep slopes. We didn't make the peak this day, but got a pretty good feeling for a few ways NOT to go next time.

Visiting Missouri Spring was interesting. Some folks named Mamie and Grace were really into carving their names in the rocks in 1911.
