The top elevation of the summit is at 8590ft/2618m high, suitable for climbing from June to October.

After hiking through the open area, walk towards the standard route to Cardinal Mountain. It is a great scramble climbing experience, for advanced climbers, offering gravelly basins and lower slopes. The summit of the mountain is highly eroded, but once you reach the top, there are breathtaking views of the alpine mountains around you.
Cardinal Peak can be reached in one day, but for the most adventurous climbers, it can be done as a two days trip or more, if combined with the surrounding summits mountain climb. If you visit the mountain in early season, take an ice axe and crampons with you.
