This was the first mountain of the 2020 Arizona summer challenge I didn’t enjoy doing.

While the views were good, the look out tower was closed down.

Also, I heard from many reports that it was a more remote summit and trail, however I ran into dozens of people that weren’t wearing masks. At the top there was over a dozen dune buggies going up the dirt road, and there were also half a dozen National Forest vehicles up there with men doing work.
It was a very crowded summit and I only stayed for a minute while wearing my mask and heading back down.

I would suggest for next year the creators of Arizona 6 pack of peaks pick a different mountain than this one, but this was just my experience.
