It was discovered that Nannies Peak is no longer the highest point in the Lone Mountain range. A rocky point about 600 feet to the north now has that honor and so in order to claim "capturing" the highest point, it is necessary to find your way to the top of it. See this link:

Recently two of us, returned and did just that. On top of the "newly" crowned highest point, we found a register with several notable prominence peakbaggers signed in who had also found this to be the highest point. So, it took us two trips to do this one right and I'm offering this correction so you can get it correct in only one visit to this remote ranch area. I'd recommend you ascend both this one and Nannies peak to get the job done right.
