The approach to that peak is very long. It took us 12h from our camp on Weart glacier to go to the summit and return. This trail crosses 5 glaciers goes up 4 cols and is very remote. I loved the extend of the glacier travel (glacier travel gears needed!). The scramble to the summit is on very loose rocks and it is easy to get into exposed part if you choose a difficult way up, but there is a class 2-3 path.
Excellent views over the North part of Garibaldi park from the summit and Fingerpost Ridge.
 
 
First, hike up the steep trail to Wedgemount Lake
