Peak Mountain 3

g. Red Cap

Description

[Edit]

Highest peak in the Calico Hills "proper".

Mostly white sandstone -- except for its summit cap which is red sandstone (and not so easy to get up on top of).

. . (also known as "Turtlehead Junior", though its rock type and appearance are not similar to much higher Turtlehead Peak).

Some possible climbing routes:

North gully

? west or southwest face ? (reported in print guidebook + SummitPost) traverse from Tank Peak from SE

. . (more info see on SummitPost, and detailed description in Courtney Purcell book page 70 . . . . also with photos + GPS in Branch Whitney book pages 69-73).
