According to my Badger Spring 7 1/2 minute quad, Badger I personally have yet to make the climb, but I've talked with Tom
Mountain is 2,431 meters or 7,973 feet. That's just a
small amount taller than Tikaboo. The original small
dishes and solar array was/is part of Nellis's range
tracking for their war games. It has some sort of
acronym like TRDS or something. In the past year or so,
something additional has been added, probably of similar
nature. Contrary to rural legend, there is no camera.
Placements of "stuff" were by chopper.
someone who has. The effort is about as difficult as
Tikaboo. The view is different, and not quite as good.
Apparently there are parts of the Badger slope in the
foreground that block some of the view and it's not as
dramatic as Tikaboo.. The easiest way to do it is
start at the saddle where you'd normally start
up to Tikaboo, turn 180 degrees, and start walking.
