 | Parking/Access Road Notes: |
Gate 195, at the end of Mt. Pisgah road is ajar! (this spring with bryan and Nordic Gal, I found this gate to be locked. A washout was present in the first 1/10. The road is now fixed).
I drove Cedar stream road for 11.5 mi from rt. 145. I turned right onto Pisgah mountain road (open gate, did not see a sign, got the name from the mile markers). I took this to the height of land at 2.9 mi. All roads were passage in a small car. |

 | Comments: |
The road brought me to the col between pisgah and east pisgah. I bushwhacked fairly directly up, hitting some scrappy going down low. I also had to avoid a swamp. After going over a fair number of bumps, I hit the highpoint, recognized with a yellow x. I took a similar route down.
I have now hiked the currently attainable peaks of the NH300 highest (unfortunately, I have not hiked the two peaks in Corbin park, as public access is not permitted). |
