 | Parking/Access Road Notes: |
Drove up Cook Hill Rd. 0.5 mi to large plowed bump out on left. Wide enough road due to lack of snow banks. Severe erosion ruts that can be avoided. This road can be icy and narrow - plowed just a bit wider than 1 car.
For precise directions to reach Cook Hill Rd, see Beth Z. post of 2019-11-06 |

 | Comments: |
From vehicle, snowshoed WSW towards ridge. Soon encountered narrow, red flagged trail that we followed a short while to another wider trail. Followed this trail along ridge to the summit.
Breaking effort - minimal on supportive snow
Grades - all easy
Tree density - open woods, before reaching trails. Numerous blowdowns between vehicle and first trail. |
