Comments
Comments: Five summers and the access road are snowmobile packed. Off trail, I found very good going with a few inches of powder over a supportive crust. Woods were wide open too. Both highpoints were recognized when I arrived.

I followed 5-summers to the logical spot before the crossing of Cherry Brook and bushwhacked up NE Goves. I returned in my tracks to five summers and followed it to a point just SW of Lucias-south peak. I bushwhacked up, hitting both major bumps (east one recognized).
