The Climb

From the improvised roadside pullout, bushwhack southwest across a dry gully. Climb south up steep grass/scrub with a few scattered pines to reach the open crest of the northeast ridge. Scramble southwest then south then southwest up the ridge to the summit. The ridge terrain becomes a mix of mountain mahogany then gapped pines. Stay left/east to remain in semi-open, easy grass/scrub when climbing this ridge. The forested areas are not difficult to navigate.

High up, the northeast ridge quietly merges into the broader northeast shoulder. Be careful to avoid getting off-course and heading northeast then east on this open shoulder on the descent. The summit is semi-open and the high point is obvious. It had a small, torn-down summit cairn. I built a nice, new cairn on the high point, next to some mountain mahogany trees.
