From 29 Pines Campground... drive the N. Fork Teanaway road for ~10.5 miles to the Iron Peak trailhead (3920') on the right side of the road.

After hiking a half mile we got a nice view of the east end of Esmeralda Peaks on the left and Fortune Peak on the right.

After hiking 2.5 miles we reached the saddle (~6200') between Iron Peak and Teanaway Peak... and got this view of Bill Peak, Devils Head, Volcanic Neck, Bean Peak, Mary Peak and Judy Peak.

From the Iron/Teanaway saddle... rodman starts on the well-worn path that will lead over to the east ridge of Teanaway Peak.

rodman continues on the path... which could almost be called a trail.
