Bugs
Bugs: Buzzing but thankfully not biting.

Comments
Comments: Started out taking a direct heading to the summit across the quite muddy wet lands area. Once o the opposite side, the woods were open with easy grades. Came upon a woods road in the State forest; land to the right of the road was clearly posted. Took the road for a short distance before jumping into the open forest heading SE for the final bushwhack to the summit. Reversed my route down, except I went further to the north to avoid the muddy wetlands. Followed by a road walk to my parked car.
