It is sometimes mistaken for the more popular Cloud Peak, being easier to see from Highway 16 and from the town of Buffalo. It's elevation is 12,324'.

This route is one of the best linkups that you can come up with in Colorado for Centennial (Colorado’s highest hundred) peaks.  The San Juan range is Colorado’s most remote mountain range, and the Weminuche Wilderness is possibly the most remote part of the entire state.  In Nolans style, this route allows you to choose the most efficient route possible that links up the Centennial peaks in the Weminuche Wilderness.
