This is the highest point in the Monte Verita Group of peaks and it looks like a cluster of spires from a distance. The route to the summit starts near Upper Baron Lake and goes up the northeast ridge. This is one of the few not so technical peaks in the region, but the scrambling is quite difficult through pinnacles and gendarmes. This route is the Redfish approach, so expect low angle polished ledges that are severely broken on the ridge's crest. Eventually, you'll follow the ridge to the summit blocks, and then climb a short pitch from the north.
