Peak 9759 by Jeff Hunteman

Posted on July 6, 2019 by Tom Lopez

This approach was from Geertson Creek. From the BLM ownership there is more than one option to gain the main south approach. The route is mostly off trail hiking and an old two track that aids in getting to the south ridge. The route begins in the desert with sage brush to work around, then enters into the Douglas fir forest and finishes in the whitebark pine and subalpine fir. The route gains elevation steadily but is straight forward with no technical sections. The weekend of June 22, was just following a snow event that left snow at the upper elevations of the Beaverhead. The front was leaving as we approached the peak. The peak is set back from the crest of the Beaverheads and offers amazing views of Monument, Three Sisters, and Center Mountains. Looking North and east offers views of Freeman and into some Montana peaks. Looking down range you can see Goldstone Peak and down toward Goat Mountain.

This peak is not in the book. Published July 2019 This peak is located due west of Center Mountain and the main Beaverhead Mountains Crest. It is an impressive summit by any measure and towers over an unnamed lake that forms the headwaters of Bohannon Creek. USGS Bohannon Spring Access Geertson Creek [(B)(2)(a) on Page 328].
