The Climb
From the 6,500-foot connecting saddle at the head of Eyrie Canyon, scramble northeast up an easy scrub slope to the summit of Eyrie Peak. The elongated, sagebrush summit has no summit cairn or signs of previous ascent. Return to the connecting saddle and then to Point 6720+. Descend the east spur of Peak 7022 back to your parked vehicle near Summit Springs Pass.
