VariantThis is a nice route to a pretty summit. Most people follow the line shown on this map, but it's a little better to turn off the trail at 2900' and follow a grassy rib up to the northwest ridge at that point, instead of waiting till you reach the microwave panel. This avoids a lot of talus. The NW ridge is a glorious walk at that point.
By either the regular route or this variant, the ridge does get a little bit exposed right near the top, as rkymtn has mentioned in the route description (class 2 plus).
