Access

South Bennett Mountain can potentially be accessed from the west over BLM land by leaving ID-20 on a two track road soon after passing the Tollgate Historical Site. See the map below.

The only access information I have received for ascending this peak leaves US-20 just east of Tollgate and follows the red line shown on this map. This route crosses private property. I do not know if there is a public easement across the private ground. Check with the BLM.
