Parking/Access Road Notes
Parking/Access Road Notes: For this route, I have typically parked on Valley road at the Alton, New Durham town line. This time, I found parking on the road above in the development. This peak has lots of posted land on all other sides, so this longer approach has seemed to be the safest bet.

Comments
Comments: I bushwhacked up in open woods to the summit clearing and walked a short distance to the cell tower/summit. Very nice views this morning. Snow cover was complete and very firm making for a quick walk up. In places it was hard to follow my tracks back. I snowshoed everything, except the short bit to the summit.
