Route Info:

We had good luck bushwhacking to this summit from the south.
From the access road we went slightly west of due north up to the ridge, then followed
the north edge of the ridge up to the summit. Mostly open woods the whole way.
Coming down we went due south -- a little steep but otherwise not too bad.

Winter Accessibility:

The access road (Bennett Street) may be closed in winter, lengthening the hike
