| Parking/Access Road Notes: |
From Rt. 212, turn south onto Rang Tout-de-joie at a large sign for Mont Gosford. After about 3.5 miles, turn left at an entrance house and kiosk marking the entrance to the ZEC. Fees are 8.00 CAD per car (including driver) and 2.25 CAD per extra person. From there drive south on Chemin Gosford, turn left onto Chemin Clearwater, then right onto Chemin de la Grive. The road really begins to deteriorate once on Clearwater. From Clearwater to the gravel pit is about .8 miles, all driveable with a low clearance vehicle, just drive slow and be careful |

| Comments: |
From the gravel pit, take the right most ATV trail that descends to cross a small brook in a grove of saplings. After the crossing, the trail is very obvious as it climbs steeply with lots of gravel footing to the boundary swath. From there it's just over a mile to the summit |
