Delayed post.
The trail is an old access road for the first 3/4 of it. It is a constant slope for the entire thing, which makes it exhausting. The two miles to the summit go by quick, but it takes some significant effort.
There is some remnants from an old structure near where the road starts to morph back into a trail. We found some wile raspberries in this area.
The view on the summit is great. There is a wood stove up there so I can only imagine some are camping on the summit. |
