| Comments: |
Hiked the logging roads to where it intersected with the "boundary trail." Hike that about .3 west to a height of land; a small rock pile notes where most hikers start the whack. Take a compass bearing to the summit. When you hit bands of small spruce trees, stay to the left... and you'll have open woods throughout.
Even with the long road walk, we were only 3 hour up, and 2 1/4 down. |
