 | Parking/Access Road Notes: |
We were able to shovel out a spot on Town Line Road. The road is narrow but not much traffic and we were slightly beyond the 2nd to last driveway, not much room. The alternative would have been to park on Piper Hill Road and walk Town Line to the point of leaving the road. |

 | Comments: |
We snowshoed up Town Line Road through an open gate (from here it is a driveway to the last home on the road) and entered a field on the right 100 yds beyond a barn. The home is well beyond the field. Field had been randomly tracked by snomo machines. We followed the edge of the field to the back where it entered an ATV/Snomo trail. This took us toward the southerly ridge of Piper, finding a few skidder paths we set a bearing and followed these to the relatively flat crown. Found the recognized summit just beyond the second hunters shack. We returned in our tracks. |
