 | Comments: |
Parked near the driveway on Picket Mountain Road, then proceeded on foot up the road (marked no ATVs), then went left at the snowmobile trail junction. For a snowmobile trail, it's actually a nice walk. Muddy sections have been filled in with crushed rock. Excellent views for not too much effort. |
