Mt. Daniel has been described as a classic alpine peak along the Cascade crest. It offers a moderate approach, scenic camp, interesting route and outstanding views from its snowfields and glaciers. The route is a moderate scramble up with exposure on the southeast ridge. It's best done in mid summer through fall when ridge is snow free. Early season accents requires crampons and ice axe.
