According to the USGS they define a mountain as any height or prominance of land that rises more than 500ft above its surrounding valley. No doupt the Tooth qualifies in this rather broad definition.
The Ridge Trail up the side is extremely easy, but very long. A series of switchbacks seem to take you back and forth along the ridge without any real climb at all, but it's not anywhere near grueling.
The Pasture Trail is much like the Stockade, going steep up the mountain. It's not as rocky, but does take longer.
