Comments: Entered the woods from the pullout through an opening. Started bushwhack through fairly open woods towards the peak. As the woods ahead of us became quite a bit closer, in an area on Gaia which is shaded and looks like a possible drainage, we adjusted our heading more just up and towards the boundary swath, paralleling that shaded area. Popped out on the boundary swath quite a bit west of the peak. Swath was covered mostly in blueberry bushes. It undulated a bit then headed down slightly before climbing towards the peak. Nice moose path most of the way. Only thick fern growth was about 100 yards before the highpoint. Headed into the woods, locating the canister in a messy blowdown area several hundred yards in on the US side. Signed in and headed back on our line to a point where the woods to our south west were much improved and started heading towards our car. Woods remained open most of the way, terrain pretty steep especially for the first half of the way down. Came to a stream which we eventually crossed just below the shaded area mentioned previously and took a final heading towards the road, coming out just south of our car.
