My first trip up this mountain produced a pretty intense hike. I have no clue how some people run up and down this mountain, but that won't be me ever. Those folks should use the other side of the mountain or something. The trip up never seemed to end, there was always another corner to turn and even when you see those railings way up high, it's still not over. The payoff though is of course worth the effort to get up there. Dramatic views, yada yada, yada. Tradition for me dictates a healthy yell upon reaching the top, so I hope the 9 people lounging on the rocks up there didn't mind. Clearly don't go here on weekends cause the point of hiking at least for me is to get some solitude and away from people. Also, this will always be Squaw Peak, nobody can pronounce the new name.
