Comments
Comments: The plowed bumpout was directly opposite an old logging woods road that went uphill. After a little over a tenth mile uphill, bushwhack 200' uphill towards a snowmobile road (you can see the sharp / straight line of this road through the trees.) If you don't bushwhack uphill, the road you are on will take you away from where you want to be.

Cross the snowmobile road and proceed up a logging woods road closed to snomo. After about 0.4 mi., as you approach the col, turn L onto a slightly more overgrown road, which in a short 0.1 mi., connects you up onto a main ATV road, which you'll follow around and up to the summit.

Nice views up on the summit area, which sports a picnic table for ATV'rs. Interestingly, sign up top calls this peak "Day Mountain."

Thanks to Schorman, Bill C., Campsite (Paul & Francine) for letting us poach on your track. Nice easy hike with Damon.
