Following Rocket21's 7/9/11 report, continued west on Wiggles Brook Rd from the Bear Brook/Wiggles junction. Fine road for a 2wd vehicle. Parked at about 2400 ft where there was a filled in area on the south side, big enough for 2-3 vehicles. |

| Comments: |
Bushwhacked south, staying to the hiker's right (west) side of the shallow drainage on the map. Open woods down low, but the spruce band is deep, thick, and steep. Picked up a herdpath from the SW about 75 yards from the summit. On the descent, went about 150 yards further west of the drainage and the spruce seemed a bit thinner. Angled back towards the drainage after clearing the spruce. |
