From East Longs Peak Trail
Nice summit, with a good view. Total ascents = 6.
My favorite way to climb Battle is from the Storm Pass Trailhead on the Bear Lake Road. Take the trail up Boulder Brook to the North Longs Peak Trail, then take that trail to timberline. Leave the trail and hike up Battle on the west slopes, then descend down the east side to Storm Pass and hike back to the Storm Pass Trailhead.

Battle Mountain on a cold windy day
Hike up East Longs Peak trail, summited Mount Lady Washington, and then hit Battle Mountain, with a descent down the southern slopes to the Jims Grove trail.
