Fantastic outing. Approach is not too bad (need a very good crossover to get to 950m, or a dirtbike to get all the way to 1600m). Then after a short forest and easy ridge, it's a couple hours of routefinding, hard scrambling, and overall alpine fun We scrambled up and down but I'd recommend at least rappelling gear.

Not good at all. American border peak is way better.

Not extremely difficult to climb. But lots of extremely dangerous loose rock. Not for inexperienced climbers
