Parking/Access Road Notes
Parking/Access Road Notes: Had to park on the side of Success Pond Road, I was the only one at 9:00, three other cars at 2:00. You can NOT drive up the logging road off Success Pond Trail, the road is partially washed out at the beginning with a large boulder placed there. You could get around it with a smaller 4x4, but my Trailblazer was not going to fit. Plus further up there was a log in the road and just before the parking lot there was the top part of a tree across the road.

Comments
Comments: Beautiful sky on the way up, beautiful sky on the way down. At the summit the wind kicked up and the dark clouds rolled in. No rain, but it look like it could have.
No problem finding the plane crash with GAIA.
