From parking location, walked south to the HOL. then headed east into the forest towards the summit. Spotted the pink flagging mentioned in other reports. Not a fan of following flagging, but it seemed to be heading to the summit along a more gradual route (not directly up the steeper locations on the hill). Followed flagging most of the way to the summit. Easy to locate register. Followed the pink flagging all the way back to the road. It came out at what may be a woods road south of the HOL. Walked the 1/4 mile of so back to my car. Almost no snow in the forest; 2-3" near the summit at the higher elevation. This will all change after the coming storm. |
