Park at the Devil's Sinkhole parking lot and begin the approach as per Cibola Mitten. Walk along the trail to Cibola Mitten for about 10 minutes until under the saddle between Morning Glory and Cibola Mitten. Leave the Forest Service trail here and follow a climbers trail up the steep slopes to the saddle. The "technical" climbing begins at this point.
