Infuriating
What a bitch. Steep with very loose soil. Coming down was even worse. Make sure to go to the south summit, so that you never ever have a reason to come back.
Climbed on the way out from the Ellen group with PT 8300. Steep and loose gravel abounds on this one, with the added bonus of having to bushwhack. Great views, but not a particularly enjoyable hike due to that. The ridge out to 8300 has some scrambling and a class 3 summit block if you decided to add that one on.

Started up wash (N38.13726 W110.74224) and then climbed out of it to the left and headed toward the top. I thought this was a tough one, but according to Mike Kelsey, "anyone can do it". There were a few spots in the wash that were steep and very slick and were challenging. Late in the year, but no snow this low down.
