Peak 7933 as viewed from Burnt Knob. White Top Mountain is on the right..
The summit can be reached by FST-539 (Forest Service Map)/FS-502 (trailhead sign), which begins on the north side of Burnt Knob. See the Burnt Knob page to learn how to access the trailhead. The trail crosses a lot of burned terrain and was in need of maintenance in August 2017. The trail drops down from the trailhead. The trail soon takes a hard right and switchbacks down toward the Burnt Knob Lakes. This turn was hidden by downed trees. I added two cairns and covered the false trail with a rock and dead wood. See my GPS track. The trail soon regains the ridge top and then switches from side to side as it moves toward the peak. It is 1.8 miles with 375 feet of elevation gain to reach the summit.

The trailhead sign. Note that despite what the sign says, there were no side trails to the lakes.
