Access

South Ridge, Class 1+

FST-081 (Grindstone/Big Peak Trail) starts on Dollarhide Summit and allegedly leads to the summit of Dollarhide Mountain. There are no signs marking this trail. The first 0.3 miles is an ATV trail. The trail then continues toward the summit. The closer you get to the summit, the less obvious the tread. The ridge is open and route finding is not a problem. After crossing a couple of false summits and losing the trail a time or two, you reach the summit. It is 1.2 miles with 600 feet of elevation gain to the pass from the summit. Shaw Mountain can be climbed from this point.
