| Parking/Access Road Notes: |
I posted an attempt on this a couple week ago, as oak hill road is posted. I had also noted that the road that is signed as Slippery Hill road was posted. However, a gated road just to the north is unposted and seemed to follow the route that slippery hill road follows on most maps. |

I followed the gated road past mile marker one. Shortly after, a blazed boundary left on the left. I followed the boundary up to another road to the north. I took this road up towards the peak, making a right at a fork (on the way down, I learned that the left branch would offer better access). The road soon got over-grown. I continued to follow cuts up to the highpoint, which I deemed to be near the tower and recognized. There were some views near the tower. I took the obvious road down, finding it to be much less over-grown as it returned to the fork (it was the left branch). I then found this road to reconnect with the initial gated road a short distance from the boundry cut. |
