Kelsey Notch Road is being plowed, but was drifted in and too risky for my small car. Some vehicles may get in a ways. There is parking at the end of the plowing. I parked on Bungy road in a wide spot and walked. |

The road approach was well packed. I bushwhacked up the south slope to the col between the peak and the subpeak to the west. In the col, I turned east to the peak. I was sinking about 6" to 1'. A rogue snowmobile made tracks very high up, which were helpful. The highpoint is recognized. For most of the return, my track were too blown in to follow out. |
