Follow trail past stone pile and then scramble over steep rock slope to get on a trail continuing up to the left of ridge. Not technically difficult. Difficult to see trail from far but obvious when you are there. At base of peak go behind the via the reddish rock to get to the top. Well worth the extra effort from lower peak.
