Description
This small pinnacle has lots of grassy and sunny terrain at it's base making it a great place for families and groups. It has climbing from easy to moderate difficulty so just about anyone can find a route that suites their fancy.
Getting There
From the junction of the northern end of the Tunnel Trail take the High Peaks Trail about 100 yards straight north to the intersection with a prominent ridge coming down from the east. If you get to a switchback, you have gone a bit too far. A climber's trail heads up the slope to the east for about 200 yards to the H&L/Tuff Dome cirque. Bynum's Spire is just west and north of Tuff Dome.
