I really enjoyed taking this trail up to the old tower site. There are nice views of the surrounding peaks and lakes.
I took the trail down from the main peak until it bent west. I began to bushwhack north, going over a bump with some old pipes and cable. The woods were open until I began the real climb towards the middle peak, when things got tighter. The recognized high point was easy to find. |
