From our parking spot we started bushwhacking east then southeast at times up an old grassy skidder road. We bounced in and out of patches of open woods and over grown wet grass sections for the 1/4 of a mile or so. We then hit some longer nice woods finding a few moose bones and then the whole skeleton. After that area it was nice open woods to the recognized high point. We returned more or less in the way we came.

Nice morning bushwhack clocking in 2.5 miles and 500 feet of elevation gain +/-
