Comments
Comments: from parking we bushwhacked briefly then picked up fresh skidder roads much of the way up the peak. views to the north of magalloway, diamond ridge, stubs, garfield falls, etc were phenomenal. some great looks to maine peaks as well. above the fresh skid roads were some older overgrown ones then a short scrappy bushwhack up to the recognized highpoint. we descended mostly on the same route taking the skid roads all the way back to the landing where we parked.
