Comments
Comments: Done this mountain once before…. Knew it would be great on views on this beautiful Friday. Very steep before the outlook with a small scramble through a cliff overhang…. Very cool. Magnificent views from the ledge overlook of Moxie lake and surrounding mountains. More scrambling to the actual summit before it tapers off then your greeted with amazing views again. Coburn Mountain front and center along with the Bigelows and many more mountains. This small mountain packs a huge punch for views and mountain climbing. Highly recommend this one on a beautiful day.
