May Day Peak & Peak 6256
September 14, 2025


May Day Peak is way in back but in shadow as I start the hike


Upper ridge, approaching May Day Peak. A whole bunch of pillars start to appear


Various rock formations nearer the top


The summit


The top left image is a view of the rock pillars about 200 feet to the south. I was still a few feet below the summit, but this was about as good a sighting I could get. Next two images are the pillars up close, then a shot as I exit


Peak 6256


About half way up


Now about three-fourths the way up


This peak had rock pillars too


The very top


Look over at May Day Peak


As I exit, May Day Peak in the distance
