Comments
Comments: We started up what looked like a woods road that went past a cabin on the left. This woods road may have been the cabins driveway. This woods road continues past that cabin and runs into a snowmobile trail. At that point we turned south (right) and followed it for a ¼ mile or so and found an older woods rood that was heading east directly towards the summit. We continued following this until faded away at about 2100 feet of elevation.

We than we headed toward the southwest ridge in nice woods. Once on the ridge at 2400 ft we turned northeast following up and down several bumps to the recognized high point and summit jar.

On our return trip we picked up that same following down to the snowmobile trail we came on. Rather than following it back the way we came we took a left and hit another woods road out to Nash Stream Rd and a short road walk back to the truck.
