We recently made a road trip and hiked Mt Rearguard in the Beartooth Mountains of Montana. A nice trip and the weather gods let us off easy. No boot tracks above treeline. Also, the last 10' is 5.6 - so the wife got a boost up to the top off my shoulders and I did a pull up on an ice ax. We had no climbing gear...Check it out.
Rearguard is the dome shaped one right of center.

No, we met Pat at Devils Tower in Wyoming on Friday.
The tower on the right in photo 9 is supposedly the summit of Rearguard - there was a very short move to gain the top of the pile. With gear you could safely gain the top of either pile from any direction - it seemed.
The point in photo 8 is the Bears Tooth. Someone should go climb it and let us know how it goes...
The picture is taken from the east summit - where the summit register was located. From the highway you can't see the two piles behind behind the east summit.
