A beautiful summer day for this easy-access hidden gem, one of my favorites along the I-90 corridor. Only a few cars were parked in the lot by the time we arrived at 9:30a on a holiday weekend Saturday, and other parties on the trail were few and friendly. Gorgeous wildflowers, bugs were light (but bug spray useful), and the Mountain emerged through the clouds just as we summited. Moving at an easy conversational pace, it took us six hours roundtrip including a short lunch break at the top.
Watch carefully for the trail as it branches off the logging road, as the rock cairn is overgrown. Signage along the trail is also missing or washed out, so recommend downloading the trail description and/or map before heading out.
