It forms one of the corners of the jagged border, which is defined to run in straight lines between the major peaks.

For example, the southwest face drops 10,000 feet (3,000 m) to the Marvine Glacier in approximately 4 miles (6.4 km).

It is also quite close to tidewater: Disenchantment Bay is less than 18 miles (29 km) from the summit.

It is not often climbed due to its remoteness, the size of the mountain, the typically poor weather (due to its proximity to the ocean), and the fact that it is not one of the highest peaks of the range.

In fact there are only four references to the peak in the complete index of the American Alpine Journal.
