Take Hwy 80 to Hwy 20. Follow Hwy 20 to Bowman Lake Road, then turn right onto NF-17 (Carl Lindsey Road). This is a well-maintained gravel road that leads to the parking area. See the GPX file below for the final portion of the drive, the parking area, and the hiking route.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first 1.5 miles of the hike are on an easy trail, with beautiful views of the lakes along the way. This section has very little elevation gain. After about 1.5 miles, you will leave the main trail and follow watercourses and\/or animal trails. We found many cairns along the way, which helped a great deal with staying on course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The last 0.75 miles involves some Class 3 scrambling. It wasn\\’t too bad going up, but I was really glad to have my hiking poles on the way down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the summit, there is a metal pole embedded in the rock with lots of old shirts tied to it. I\\’m told you\\’re supposed to bring a shirt to add to the collection! For me, the pole made an excellent mast holder. There isn\\’t much room on the summit itself; I\\’d say there\\’s really only enough space for one antenna setup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
