This peak is located southwest of the main Lemhi crest and Bear Mountain. This is a good early-season summit. The views of the Lemhi crest are well worth the effort. USGS Moffett Springs
Access
FS-099/Big Gulch Road [(C)(5) on Page 317]. Continue up FS-099 when it climbs southeast out of the Big Gulch. The main road continues to a saddle above Summerhouse Canyon. Additionally, there are old, deteriorating logging roads which can be used to shorten the climb.
East Ridge, Class 2
My route is shown on the map below. I originally was going to climb the peak from the Big Gulch/Summerhouse Canyon saddle but the road was still snow covered. From wherever you park, climb the north face of the East Ridge. Once on the ridge, follow it west to the summit.
