 | Comments: |
I'll be back in the area in a couple weeks on vacation and will try to clean up the blow down on the road better then.
Hike up the trail past the third bridge, take a right onto a narrow ATV trail (looks like a brook) at a yellow arrow pointing left (small cairn on large rock). Turn right at cairn where the atv path meets a skidder road. Follow this until you cross the summit trail marked with a small cairn and flagging |
