From Sunlight Creek, made the long traverse over from PT 13121, Greylock and "East Window" through the high benches below the 14ers, a really cool place actually. We were glad the weather held for us to sneak this one in while we were back there. It has some incredible views.

Fun climb.
Great peak. +1 Sarah's description of the sketchy backside hard pan. I put up a trip report here:

Simple climb with a short sketchy section
The climb to the Knife Point - Peak Ten saddle from Noname Basin is brutally steep and somewhat obnoxious but the wildflowers were peaking and it was absolutely beautiful. There is a section of sketchy hardpan slopes that must be traversed shortly past the saddle - some of the scariest 2nd class terrain I've encountered.

Grand Finale
This fine peak capped off a 7-day, 13 peak, 45 miles, 30k elevation gain trip in the Weminuche, beginning with Vestal Basin and ending right here in No Name. Only other summit logs were from Jennifer/Gerry Roach back in the late 90's, the famous Colorado landscape photographer Jack Brauer and 2 others. 5 logs in 8 years! Saw 2 people in 168 hours.
