I couldn't believe that this hike was only a half a mile
further than Bald Mountain.
I would say that it's about 5 times harder. There was no real
trail, you just have to find your way up the spur ridge. Once
you're on the spur ridge a path becomes visible near the top.
I would have to say that this is the hardest, and most dangerous,
5 miles I've ever walked. If you don't have great route finding
skills, stay clear of this peak. Also reading the rocks is
a crucial part of this hike, step on the wrong ones and you're
doomed. On the top of the peak, there was an incredible assortment
of multi-colored flys. As soon as I tried to take pictures
of them, they left us alone.
We climb today and got to the last pitch for the summit. It look steep and then the clouds came over. We turn and headed down just in time.Grapel and rain cold wind but all was good .

How funny - I have Baxter the Rocky Mountain Pug - I thought he was the only one. He has done (to date) three 14ers and 11 peaks.

Great pictures!I climbed this peak as a young man on July 4th 1976. At the summit I signed a register. Is it still there? I'm going to attempt this peak with my kids this summer (knee willing).

I love this place even though it is a VERY challenging hike. I have been there about 16 times and each time is better than the last. I plan on taking my wife in this summer for our anniversary.

It's so great to see these pics of the High Uintas!! Pics of this range are rare for us Californians. It's like you Utah folk wish to keep the range a secret...with good reason. I am really enjoying seeing these peaks that only were alluded to on maps--like Mt. Lovenia. By the way...there is a typo error on one of the pics from Hayden. South Kings is 13,512". Thanks for supplying these photos; put me on your list, and send more if possible...particularly close-ups of Lovenia and Powell and Fortress. Thanks. Best, Michael Deák

Great pics. I haven't climbed this mountain nor am I likely to. Your comments as to it's difficulty is as I would assume. It looks like a very challenging hike. 5 miles... straight up!
