Conditions: Pretty good, a bit drier than Twins & Galehead

Special Required Equipment: None

Comments: After being shut out view wise & back to the car sooner than anticapted from doing Twins & Galehead, I went searching for a possible view from a lower summit without having to do much walking. While the view was better than South Twin, all I got was a short glimpse of the parking lot where my car was parked 4/10 of a mile away & 350 below. This is another great little peak to visit but requires some rock scrambling that make it a better 3rd of 4th trip for kids, not a first trip unless they are probably 10+ years old. Provides good view of setting sun over VT mountains when weather allows.
