Godd easy to slightly moderate hike. Necessitates a slick rock friction climb. Slow steady small steps will get up the rock. The hike is a shepherds hook trail you actually hike below it and past it then cut diagonally across the rock to climb to it. Its been marred by a lot of names carved into the rock. Good views from the accompanying peak to the North. There are lots of false cairns that if followed will not take you to the site.
