| Parking/Access Road Notes: |
I had to park at blue mtn. variety, as the road is muddy and rutted. There is current logging, so one could drive in a ways with a more capable vehicle or if things freeze up. Today it was very soft and was smart not to try any part in my small car. |

| Comments: |
I walked the road from Rt. 3 up to Cleveland Notch. The road started out plowed and very soft and muddy. It transitioned between this condition and blue ice. It felt like a long haul to the notch. I bushwhacked right up to the summit in initially thick woods that quickly opened and remained that way to the recognized high point. Snow on the bushwhack was minimal at the start and more higher up, but always supportive. I followed my tracks out. |
